Probably the Best "Holy caRRRnations, Mary. Take a look at this!", you might exclaim for seeing this book the first time. "Look at the clever propaganda of Scotts trying to sell us more of their products!" Well, you might think that . . . but you're wrong. You and I have the advantage -- yeap, GREAT advantage -- of living in the Information Age. And in the process of trying "to sell us more of their Scotts products" -- for those of you for who the glass is half-empty -- Messrs. Nick Christians and Ashton Ritchie have provided us not only with probably the best book on lawns, but invaluable information on lawn care from A to Z.^M
Excellent & Easy Read For Entry Level Lawn Owners As a first time lawn owner for an 18 year old lawn, I looked at this book and one other one which I think was called "The lawncare bible". My perception was that the "bible" was much more in depth and technical than I wanted to know. The "Scotts Lawns: Your Guide..." proved an easy and fast read - but with plenty of pictures to also make it fun to read. This book covered all the basics I needed to know about making my troubled lawn look much better. It also showed all the weed problems (which I had a few) and the solutions to fix them. I now know almost all of the simple "secrets" that make for a great looking lawn. Hint: Its all about the basics, of which this book makes vividly clear and easy to follow.
Very informative I am a new owner of half an acre of lawn. I didn't know anything about lawn care until I read this book. This is not "Scotts" infomercial, it is packed with enough information for you to start caring for your lawn, whether or not you will use Scotts products. |
