    Noticeable Difference

    I am very happy with the progress of my lawn so far. I have applied 2 treatments to my front and back yards and am noticing a big difference in how thick and green the grass is compared to years in the past using other various treatment programs.

    A work in progress

    I think I'm doing all the right things. Trying to go all organic with the fertilizing and Sunday makes THAT easy (thanks Sunday). I'm working on the grubs with Milky Spore and beneficial nematodes and working on the crabgrass with corn gluten pre-emergent. I even went after the crabgrass by hand this year to prevent them from dropping seeds. It's a many year process.

    Easy to follow instructions, wish there was more testing

    Sunday makes annual lawn care easy. The pouches show up with clear instructions and it only takes 15 minutes or so per application. I appreciated the initial lawn testing to get a snapshot of our soil health. I wish the company offered annual tests so I could see improvement over time and long-term trends. I assume the plan is tailored specifically to my lawn but it isn't entirely clear what connection exists between my specific soil test results and the selection of pouches provided in the annual plan. More clear explanations would be helpful.
