As the dog days of summer approach, many customers begin to ask about products capable of increasing their free time and decreasing time spent watering and maintaining green lawns and landscapes. There are numerous products on the market that have been designed specifically for these purposes. These products can cut time and costs associated with summer lawn care. Read on to learn about some of our favorites.
Gator Bags
Tree Gator bags are 15 – 30 gallon bags mounted to the base of a tree, or shrub, and filled with water. The bags slowly release the stored water directly into the root system for deep saturation. The bags not only conserve water by preventing run-off and evaporation, but also prevent transplant shock in new trees and shrubs and prevent heat stress from drought in both new and established plants. Depending on tree size, the bags only need to be filled every 5 to 7 days. Water soluble nutrients can be added as needed to keep trees and shrubs healthy. Gator bags are easy to install: just zip, fill, and go! They have been designed to save money, time, and create peace of mind.
Terra Sorb
Terra Sorb is a long-lasting protectant designed to ensure plants receive necessary water and nutrients during drought and hot weather. They are capable of absorbing over 150 times their weight in water. The crystals are mixed into the soil dry, absorb water when it is plentiful, and release the water as needed to prevent heat stress and maintain optimal plant health. As the water is released the potassium-based polymers breakdown into fertilizer. Terra Sorb can be applied annually to protect plants and landscapes.
Rain Bird Products
For customers wanting a long-term investment in their free time, an inground sprinkler system can provide just that. Rain Bird has been providing high quality sprinkler and irrigation systems since 1935. Their products have been designed to save time and conserve water. These sprinkler systems emit the right amount of water with each application to ensure a healthy yard without the hefty bill. Rain Bird also offers rain shut-off and moisture sensing devices to further cost savings over the life of a sprinkler system. Each Rain Bird system installation can be customized to the unique needs and layout of every yard.
