Scott's 4 Step Lawn Care, Does it really work?
A healthy lush green garden requires our time and efforts forever. But sadly we are so much occupied in our daily chores that we barely get time to invest in the upkeep of the most beautiful corner of the house – our lawn. That is why most people look for the simplest, easiest, and DIY products to maintain their lawn without putting in much effort.
That’s exactly why the Scott’s 4 Step Lawn Care Program is so much acceptable among lawn lovers. This program claims to maintain your lawn by following few simple steps with very little hecticness. However, unfortunately, truth is something else. This program severely lacks various necessary steps to maintain a healthy lawn.
Let’s elaborate on what exactly is missing in Scott's 4 step lawn care program which made it lost its creditability among the users.
The key to getting started is knowing your lawn
Problem 1
Scotts Claims to Simplify the Attack on Crabgrass
The first step of Scott’s lawn care program is the application of crabgrass preventer and food. For better user understanding and convenience they advised investing some time on or before the Easter holidays. Timing plays a very crucial role during the application of the chemical. In an effort to make things easier, this program fails to measure the importance of adequate timing to apply crabgrass preventer.
In reality, it has very little to do with a particular date and everything to do with the soil temperature because it helps in preventing crabgrass from germinating. It would not be of any use if crabgrass already germinated. All of that is dependent on the soil temperature. More importantly, they never mention that one application is not enough to get rid of this problem.
Rather we would say that this program doesn’t want its user to get acquainted with reality. But we, Green Garden Landscaping, from the beginning of the treatment process only make everything crustal care. Our experts apply professional-grade crabgrass preventers for lawn and see if any breach may occur and treat them with the best quality pre-emergent for a complete solution.
Generally, a chemical used to prevent crabgrass is kept in store which increases the chances of a breach which Scott program never mentions you in their program. This is their first step towards failure.
During the Summer, your lawn needs so much more than lawn food. At this time your lawn care treatment should be offended on crabgrass and summer annual weeds which need specialized treatments. Also, your lawn care program should include grub management and special applications for surface-feeding insects which can be devastating for your lawn if not handle on time.
Scott's 4-step lawn care program has never addressed lawn insects, which are a serious lawn threat.
Problem 2
Optimize Substandard Products to Curb Tough Weeds
The next step in the Scotts 4 Step program is weed control plus lawn food. Here again, they didn’t pay much attention. The quality of products which they use is not at par to work actively to cure tough weed of your lawn. Actually, the biggest problem lies in their choice of the product, they use granular weed controller which is comparatively less effective than liquid weed control products, especially ones that are professional grade.
As per Scott's 4 step program granular needs some steps to follow before its application such as the ground needs to be wet for in-depth penetration and it should not rain within 24 hours otherwise product will wash off by rainwater. Basically, you have to wait for an ideal day to apply these products. What a waste of time it is and they claim these are the most convenient steps.
What’s more? They follow one rule for every type of weed. Again fails to understand the importance of critical analysis of a particular type of weed destroying your property.
Problem 3
Missing Elements of a Vigorous Lawn Care Program
Now Scott’s 4 step program has reached the mid-summer and its 3rd step of lawn food with iron. This is very important for your lawn but maybe your lawn is already full of it. Your lawn may be requiring something else other than food. As we have reached the mid-summer and your lawn care program should be attacking the persisting crabgrass breakthroughs, but also addressing nutsedge and several other summer weeds, many of which require a special kind of attention to control.
Additionally, your lawn care program should also be addressing lawn grubs and surface-feeding insects that have the power to ruin your lawn. Although lawn grub control is very essential for your healthy turf but Scott’s program never brings them up.
Likewise, tackling surface-feeding insects is yet again the major issue often faced by lawn owners, but Scott’s program didn’t mention anything about this.
Green Garden Landscaping, being responsible professionals, assures a thorough check of every step of lawn care service for a healthy lawn.
Problem 4
An Unexpected Ending to a Program that Already Fails to Succeed
The final step in Scott’s 4 step program is fall lawn food. It does not address weed which is persistently reoccurring. In fact, different seasons have different weeds. The healthy lawn needs essential lawn care service in the fall which Green Garden Landscaping would be happy to serve you. We focus on every parameter from soil health to the optimization of professional-grade products.
