Home Lawn Care - Keep It Simple - Lawn Troopers

By Carl Messenger-Lehmann


Lawn care training takes two major forms. On the one hand, we have formal training, and on the other hand, we have informal training. We will be looking at each of these in turn, with a view to understand what each entails. But before doing all that, we need to first of all answer the more basic question -- as to who actually requires the lawn care training. And that is where we come to learn that lawn maintenance training is required by people who have it as a goal to venture into the business of maintaining lawns.

Exotic plants are any sort of foliage that is not native to the region and as such will require additional care and supplementary things such as special food, water or lighting settings for it to succeed. So, planting only native plants that are accustomed to fending for themselves, is one way to avoid making lawn care in your home a time consuming task.

Some individuals, myself included, tend to believe even the most basic lawn care a bit tedious. Yep, even just lugging out the old lawn mower for a quick clipping can seem very tedious. But then again, I live in a nearly tropical climate where the grass grows so quickly that if I miss a weekly trimming in the summertime my backyard start to look like a jungle.For people looking for a way to cut down on even basic lawn care, there's also the herbal lawn. True, you may find it more work to get started if you already have a lawn in place, or if the existing lawn is a particularly hardy variety such as St. Augustine or some types of crab grass. But you may find it worthwhile and even pleasurable to incorporate an herbal lawn if you don't have a lawn yet or have a more fragile category growing.

Feed It Right: Make sure you are using a four step program when you are fertilizing your lawn. You want to ensure you follow the instructions on the program that you choose to make sure you get the maximum results from your product. Take the time to read and determine whit it is that will work best and when it is that you should apply the treatments to your lawn.

Informal lawn maintenance training: This is normally offered within the context of on the job training' by the various lawn service firms. There is no standard curriculum followed here. Neither are there examinations (though evaluation is done informally, by way of observation of how well the trainees are able to perform various practical lawn care tasks). In most cases, there are no certifications issued. Still, given its practical hands-on nature, this form of training is very powerful. Worth noting is the fact that most of the rank and file' staff in lawn care firms at the moment are beneficiaries of this sort of informal training.
