I tried a number of organic lawn fertilizers this summer and still none of them really compared to Milo. In the warm months it's my go-to fertilizer.
Now that fall has set in and getting kind of late in the season I've been going to synthetic route. High's in the next couple days to the week or unusually warm around 70°, so I think I'm going to put down another round of Scott's winter guard fertilizer.
I understand why you like the stuff and I was tempted till I found out that it’s not just human poopie cleaned up and turned into a product. It’s all the chemicals that were flushed down into the sewer and that includes factory “byproducts.” It’s not organic, no matter what they say.
You might want to do a Google search on the difference between synthetic and organic fertilizers.
Milo is an organic fertilizer.
Milo is organic only in the sense that it’s derived from sewage sludge, which is indeed full of organic poop. What they don’t tell you is that everything goes into the sewer, including effluent from factories and the drugs that people excrete, just for starters. When you put that on your lawn, you take away two of the biggest arguments for even having a lawn...do you really want your kids and pets playing there?
Your lawn care program doesn't end just because it's winter. Let's have a quick chat about winterizing your lawn. I cover the pros and cons of different fertilizer and other things you should consider.
What's a good price for the 32 lb. bag? It varies so much by time of year and store it's hard to tell...
