Why is Soil Solutions more expensive than conventional lawn care products and services?
It really isn’t. Organic lawn care products, organic produce, organic body care products, etc. cost more than their conventional counterparts initially, but in the long run, you end up saving money with the organic approach. Our products are handmined from a seventy million-year-old decomposed rain forest in Utah and are the purest form of humates available. Scientific research has shown that humates can restore the vitality of soil and increase its capacity to retain moisture. Naturally they are expensive. Soil Solutions promotes deep root development, which means more drought resistance and less watering. Water will be our most expensive utility in the future, particularly if the drought pattern of the past few growing seasons continues. Mechanical de-thatching and aeration are unnecessary because the microbial life in the products breaks down the thatch and aerates naturally. Trees, plants and shrubs will have a healthier foundation and be more pest, disease and drought resistance.
