Fed by soil test, not by guesswork.
A season-long organic-first program: four visits that keep pH balanced and the lawn fed with formulations chosen for soil health — the same soil-test-driven approach golf courses use for their turf.
Most fertilizers stop at N-P-K. Lawns don't.
Turf needs six major nutrients in appreciable amounts. Most fertilizers supply three — nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium. When calcium, magnesium, or sulfur run deficient, the lawn lacks durability, vigour and colour no matter what else goes down.
That's why this program pairs fertility with soil testing: a written report showing what your soil actually holds, so every amendment corrects something real. Each product complements the others and works as a system.
A season on the program.
pH + first feeding
pH adjustment with Solu-Cal humic-acid-enhanced amendments, then the spring feeding — corn gluten, or overseeding instead if the lawn needs density more than deterrence.
Growth feeding
A 12-6-12 feeding fortified with kelp extract and humic acid — nutrients plus the biology that helps roots actually use them.
Recovery feeding
A gentler 8-2-2 feeding that carries the lawn through heat stress without forcing growth it can't sustain.
Winterization
A 4-3-8 fall formulation — potassium-forward for root reserves and winter hardiness, so next spring starts from strength.
Four visits, priced by lawn size and confirmed in a plan we agree in advance · soil test and spring or fall core aeration available as add-ons.
In Ontario, organic is the standard.
Ontario banned cosmetic pesticides in 2009. Every lawn company works within that — the difference is between treating it as a constraint and building a program around what actually makes northern turf strong: balanced soil, organic matter, biology, and the right feeding at the right time.
Chemical-free first means compost, corn gluten, kelp, humic acid, wollastonite and mineral pH correction — matched to a soil test, applied on a schedule that follows the season.
Common questions.
Why do you push soil tests with fertilization?
Because most fertilizers supply three nutrients — nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium — while turf needs six in appreciable amounts. If calcium, magnesium, or sulfur are deficient, the lawn lacks durability, vigour and colour no matter how much N-P-K goes down. A soil test with a written report tells us what's actually missing. It's the same approach golf courses use — nothing left to guesswork.
Is this program actually organic?
Organic-first: compost, corn gluten, kelp, humic acid, and mineral amendments, with formulations chosen for soil health rather than a fast cosmetic green-up. In Ontario — where cosmetic pesticides have been banned since 2009 — this isn't a premium quirk; it's the professional standard done properly.
What does it cost?
Organic inputs cost more than conventional fertilizers and go down at higher rates, so the program is priced by your lawn — size, soil needs, and travel — and confirmed in a plan we agree with you before anything starts. Small lawns carry a per-visit minimum. Soil test and spring or fall core aeration are the two add-ons worth discussing.
How does this relate to the Revive program?
Revive rebuilds a struggling lawn's foundation; Organic Plus keeps a healthy lawn fed and balanced across the season. Many clients run Revive first, then move to the maintenance program once the soil is right.
