‘If we spent a fraction of our gardening time caring for the underground soil, we’d spend a lot less time working on our lawns and gardens above the ground,’ says soil remediation scientist, Bob Richardson.
The ground does rule and ultimately determine the beauty of our outdoor landscapes. You can fertilize, water, buy superior seeds, plants, and products, but your lawn and garden will never have that envied ‘golf course’ look until you begin at the beginning and fortify the soil.
‘You might be doing everything else right, but bad soil will wreak havoc on all of your efforts.’ says Richardson.
One of the most common solutions for good, healthy soil is aeration. ‘Most of us know what aeration is, but don’t do it,’ says Richardson. ‘Old-fashioned aeration is back breaking work and no one wants to spend the time, money or energy to do it.’
In Portland, Ore, Troy Hake, owner of Outsidepride, was hearing the same complaints from thousands of customers. ‘They kept asking ‘What do you have that will make it easy for me to aerate my garden?” explains Hake.
Hake joined forces with Richardson to create a product that would aerate the soil and encourage bio-life to keep it healthy, while at the same time make the aeration process easy, even lazy.
After trials and testing, the final result of Richardson and Hake’s efforts paid off. They developed a revolutionary new aeration product that will be introduced this spring. It is a liquid aerator so all you do is attach the product to your garden hose and spray. No clean up, no wasted time, no hard work. It doesn’t get any easier than that!
The product, aptly named LazyMan Liquid Soil Aerator, is an all-natural liquid that covers 100 percent of the soil evenly. Lazyman is the only liquid aerator on the market fortified with tiny beneficial organisms that break up compacted soil and create holes underground that allow roots to spread out and breathe.
The roots easily gather more essential air, food and water to deliver to lawns and gardens. ‘We added humic acid and other nutrients directly to the formula, making LazyMan three to four times more effective than any other aeration product on the market,’ says Richardson.
Ground Rules for Healthy Soil
Richardson offers the following ‘ground rules’ for healthy soil that will enable you to create that golf course look we all envy and long for:
‘Now there’s no reason not to aerate and create a lawn and garden that is the envy of the neighborhood without any of the hard work,’ says Hake, the man who came up with the name. ‘This season sit back, relax, and just spray on beautiful lawns and gardens. And remember, the ‘ground rules’ the health and beauty of your lawn and garden.’
