- Your grass as the dominant plant. Your
lawn is now highly competitive without using chemicals to mask over
problems or creating more by doing so. Natures Own Growing System enhanced lawn care, combined with the following
maintenance procedures, will give you a high performing, beautiful
naturally rich green lawn.
- A lawn where BioVam Mycorrhiza are
plentiful and can now naturally resist non-Mycorrhizal weeds such as
Dandelions for lack of adequate nutrition to them. As your lawn gets
thicker and Mycorrhizal dominant, such weeds lose their dominance.
- A lawn where BioVam Mycorrhiza are
plentiful and can now naturally resist the spread of moss. As your
lawn gets thicker and Mycorrhizal dominant, moss loses its
dominance.
- A lawn where the use of and need for high phosphorus
chemical fertilizers, high phosphate organic fertilizers, Chicken
manure or Bat guano (which are very high in phosphates) can now be
"avoided!" In fact, we strongly recommend you not use them
when you use BioVam Mycorrhiza on your lawns, gardens, etc. We
recommend you use Biosol Mix 7-2-3 All Purpose
Fertilizer when you use BioVam Mycorrhiza. We have found that Biosol
Mix 7-2-3 All Purpose Fertilizer, on a long-term basis will
furnish Organics and minerals that most plants need to improve their
health. These traditional
chemical methods have resulted in burdensome pollution and
environmental problems, creating serious health issues.
Please note:
The use of high phosphorus chemical
fertilizers may damage your BioVam treated lawns, gardens and plants
and or may inhibit the health giving Mycorrhizal process you are trying
to establish. This is why: the Mycorrhiza in BioVam, once established
with your lawn or plants are able to take phosphorus into plants at
levels 400% higher than the plants own root system. With plentiful
Mycorrhiza fungi present, levels of Phosphorus above 2% may cause
burning - and, if high enough, kill your plants. Once the Mycorrhiza has
lost its host plant, which it depends on for food, it dies. To prevent
this from happening, use only Biosol Mix 7-2-3 All
Purpose Fertilizer. Biosol Mix 7-2-3 All Purpose
Fertilizer is
a rich, complex organic fertilizer providing all the nutrients your
lawn, plants, trees and soil will need. This just shows how very
effective BioVam Mycorrhiza is at feeding your lawn and at maintaining
its health, and why it is a cleaner, healthier and superior way to
grow. Routine
Maintenance:
- Cut your grass to a height that is
commonly recommended for the type of grass you have. 2.5 - 3
inches is recommended for Kentucky Blue Grass.
- Never scalp or crew cut your lawn. A
lawn cut high discourages weed and insect infestations. Longer grass
is hardier and much more competitive. It also helps prevent weeds
from sprouting, keeps the roots and soil moist and will encourage
the roots to grow deeper into the soil. Cutting longer aids the
Mycorrhizal process you are establishing, and both aid your lawn in
resisting lawn diseases.
- Mow once a week and cut 1/3 or less of
the length of the grass each time you mow.
- Keep the blades on your mower
sharpened so you don’t rip the grass. Make sure the grass is dry
when you mow it.
Mulch the grass
clippings into your lawn:
- The mulch from BioVam Grown lawns is
now a safe and rich excellent Organic fertilizer for your lawn.
- Earthworm populations in BioVam
lawns explode and feed on that mulch. That is one of the reasons a BioVam
lawn doesn’t have thatch problems - those worms are Nitrogen
recyclers!
- BioVam's Mycorrhiza decomposes and
feeds all the waste from the Earthworms to your lawn – another
plus!
- If you miss mowing your lawn for a
week, unlike the clippings from Chemically treated lawns which turn
brown, clippings from a Mycorrhizal lawn stay green longer -
avoiding the "cut hay field" look!
- When you switch to a BioVam Grown
lawn you can start mulch mowing right away. The top growth in a
Mycorrhizal lawn will produce 60% to 90% fewer clippings starting in
the first week after the Mycorrhiza has been applied.
How to
water your new BioVam Grown lawn:
- Once a week, apply one inch of water
to your lawn. If it is hot and dry, apply the water early in the
morning before it gets hot. As an alternative to this
method, daily light watering will also suffice with BioVam grown
lawns.
- You can easily measure how long it
takes your sprinkler to put out an inch of water by placing a pan
near the sprinkler to catch the water.
- Under normal Organic situations, light
watering would cause roots to grow shallow, but when BioVam
Mycorrhiza is added to your lawn, light watering will not cause that
effect : the Mycorrhiza fungi grow down into the soil where plant
roots do not normally grow. It loosens the soil, allowing the roots
to grow down into water tables normally out of reach to them, thus
deepening the root system. This results in less water being
required on lawns treated with BioVam Mycorrhiza. One inch
of water once a week or daily light watering will more than
suffice.
Seasonal
care and reapplication:
When you reapply BioVam Biotic-Mycorrhiza and
Biosol Mix 7-2-3 All Purpose Fertilizer to your lawn
each year, you are maintaining and strengthening the health and richness of your
lawn and its highly resistant and beneficial Mycorrhizal and Biosol
Mix 7-2-3 All Purpose Fertilizer enriched organic biosphere.
- BioVam Mycorrhiza treatment with Biosol
Mix 7-2-3 All Purpose Fertilizer will result in a naturally healthy and
dominant lawn that out competes and
resists
weeds, mosses, fungi, and molds for
nutrients : the Mycorrhiza breaks down and consumes the organics
they like to feed on.
- Heavy traffic also has far less affect
on established BioVam Grown lawns because the ground remains soft
and gives when people walk on it or vehicles drive over it. The
grass isn’t caught between two hard surfaces and crushed. We have
seen heavy traffic areas actually fill in with new growth from the
multitude of new shoots that results when BioVam Mycorrhiza is
applied to a lawn.
- The need to over-seed is greatly
reduced with BioVam Grown lawns because of the way it
aids
generation of new shoots. (But overseeding also has a more dramatic
effect on established BioVam Grown lawns. See below.)
- Typically, BioVam Mycorrhiza
isolates the lawn from the effects of the wrong pH level in
soils, environmental stresses and diseases. See our original
Fairy
Ring and Necrotic Ring
research.
- The vitality of BioVam Grown lawns is
raised to higher levels. Many insects are generally not drawn to and
have trouble seeing the energy frequency given off from healthier
plants.
- Earthworms recycle Nitrogen and
flourish as they eat the thatch in BioVam Grown lawns and pass
along their benefits to the lawn and soil. They are also the best
natural aerators of the roots of your lawn and aid the movement of
the Mycorrhiza fungi hyphe and grass roots, deepening the lawns root
system.
- As the lawn becomes thick and
vigorous, weed germination is dramatically reduced. BioVam
does not kill weeds. If your lawn has more weeds than
grass and that bothers you, you can kill them with weed be gone, wait 30 days then
apply BioVam – or stay natural! The grass will continue to
thicken up crowding the weeds out naturally year after year. Overseeding with matching grass seed mixed with BioVam when you reapply - or apply
for the
first time - will dramatically aid this process.
Rake your
lawn occasionally when needed to remove debris in the spring and fall:
- Thatch will generally not be a problem
because the BioVam Mycorrhiza and the Earthworms are continually
consuming it.
Aerate
when you reapply BioVam Mycorrhiza:
- Aerate early in the spring after the
ground has thawed and drained. Then apply BioVam Mycorrhiza at a rate
of 1 quart per 2,000 square feet. Do not let BioVam Mycorrhiza heat
up in direct sunlight – prolonged heat from the sun will kill the
fungi. Water the BioVam Mycorrhiza thoroughly into the lawn and soil.
In the past, mechanical aeration was done to increase air
circulation, water and fertilizer to the roots. Now, it is also done so
the BioVam Mycorrhiza can be applied more directly to the roots of
the lawn. Then, as the Mycorrhiza fungi and the Earthworms do their
job, they keep your lawn continuously aerated throughout the year.
Reapply Biosol
Mix 7-2-3 All Purpose Fertilizer, Planters II and our soil life tea each time you reapply BioVam Mycorrhiza:
- You can apply Biosol
Mix 7-2-3 All Purpose Fertilizer at the same time you apply the BioVam.
But wait no more than about two weeks after BioVam Mycorrhiza is applied. One
application feeds your lawn all year long. Biosol Mix
7-2-3 All Purpose Fertilizer working with BioVam Mycorrhiza is an important addition to
your soil and benefited plants. We urge you to use Biosol
Mix 7-2-3 All Purpose Fertilizer when you use BioVam Mycorrhiza. We
have found that Biosol Mix 7-2-3 All Purpose Fertilizer, on a long term basis will furnish Organics and minerals that
most plants need to improve their health.
- Note: If Biosol
Mix 7-2-3 All Purpose Fertilizer is not available
in your area, you can substitute cottonseed meal. We also
recommend the annual addition of Gypsum and Planters II for minerals and
soil conditioning.
Over-seeding:
- After you aerate, you can optionally
apply new seed if needed. As the new seed germinates the BioVam
Mycorrhiza will be active with your lawn from the moment the seed
sprouts. The percentage of germinated seeds is also increased using BioVam
Mycorrhiza. Established lawns will thicken more quickly by overseeding
them and new lawns will more quickly grow to maturity.
