OT: Scotts, Chem Lawn or Lawn Doctor?

This is probably off topic even for an off topic forum.

 

Anyone have any experience? Quality or price. I have 3 ads on my desk and no idea who to call.

I have been but not very well, plus work has been killing me so I would prefer the extra time with the family since the weekends are my only time I can spend time with them.

 

I'm in Parsippany and for some reason my lawn guy doesnt do it.

I've been using Tru Green for the last 4 years, the grass has been thick, green, and weathers the hot summer well without too much watering. They are based out of Randolph.

do it yourself, but get a soil test 1st not just ph .the test is like $20 then look for lesco or john deer landscapes

DIY Find a lesco dealer in your area. It will take you 4 hours a season to spread the fert. You will save about $300 to boot and have the best lawn on the block by year two !!!

You wont regret it. The lesco guys are great. Just remeber it takes two years to set up a lawn. This year you are going to get the soil healthy for fall seeding.

You will need to aerate and seed the last week of august.Then just keep the seed moist .
