compost works

I stopped using chemical fertilizers last year, and this year have applied organic fertilizer twice. I had one area in the sodded front yard (bermuda sod almost 8 years old) that just wasn't thriving, it was very thin and barely growing. I brought home some compost, a mix of composted cow manure and wood chips. I put out the bags and gave my two kids a rake and a push broom.

The same day I put out Milorganite (don't tell me bout the dangers of trace metals etc.) the same day. In less than two weeks I'm seeing great improvement.

Thanks to all the long time organic lawn enthusiasts for helping us along. Next up I will put compost in the rough areas in the back.
