4 Steps to a Healthy Lawn
Caring for a lawn doesn't have to be complicated. In fact, with a few easy-to-use products and tools you can have the lawn you've dreamed of. ARBICO Organics is happy to provide a variety of natural and organic products that will see you through the grass-growing season. Follow the four steps below to a grow a healthy, lush lawn.
Perhaps the most important step is building healthy soil. The goal here is to build humus and "clean" the growing area. Dethatch the lawn, aerate soil and supplement soil nutrition to prepare your lawn for stressors throughout the season.
Hydretain® Granular OC
Cut watering by up to 50%! Hydretain is a root zone moisture manager designed to maximize the availability of soil moisture to turf and grasses. Trusted by golf courses, landscapers and greenhouses, it uses humectant compounds and a soil surfactant to reduce drought stress. Also available in a liquid formulation.
Maxicrop Kelp Meal Fertilizer, 1-0-2
Norwegian Kelp is a soil conditioner that adds vitamins, essential minerals and amino acids. It is slow to break down and stimulates healthy plant development. The additional organic matter also helps soils retain moisture.
Maxicrop Soluble Seaweed Powder
Seaweed is an excellent source of trace minerals and natural plant hormones that help condition the soil and help maintain lawn health. Apply beginning in spring to stimulate root development & drive healthy growth.
Down To Earth Bio-Turf, 8-3-5

Beneficial Nematodes
Beneficial nematodes are microscopic, non-segmented roundworms that kill soil-borne insects. A combination of NemAttack and NemaSeek will control grubs, weevils, ants, termites, fleas & ticks, cockroaches, and many more pest insects. Beneficial nematodes are not harmful to humans, dogs, cats, reptiles, birds, aquatic life or beneficial insects.
Milky Spore - Japanese Beetle Control
Milky spore kills the grubs of Japanese beetles by infecting them with Paenibacillus popilliae, a target-specific bacteria. Use in spring or fall with nematodes for maximum control.
RootShield Plus WP
RootShield Plus grows in soils and on roots shielding them from soil-borne diseases. It provides preventive control of major diseases like Pythium, Fusarium and Rhizoctonia for up to 12 weeks. Compatible with many chemical inputs, RootShield also helps turf resist abiotic stresses.
ARBICO Organics Root Build 240
Most plants have a symbiotic relationship with mycorrhizal fungi. These fungi may not be present in the soil because of soil depletion or disruption of the soil layers (especially in new construction). By inoculating your lawn with beneficial fungi it will grow faster and more robustly, require less water and be healthier overall. Use on new or established lawns.
Prevent pests from invading your lawn before they become a nuisance. Use the following products to eliminate outdoor pests without chemicals.
