Charlotte's 10-Year Organic Lawn Program: Sugar, Deep Watering, and No Chemicals

Charlotte's Texas lawn went from 50% weeds to weed-free in one season using sugar (4–5 lbs/1000 sq ft, spring and fall), deep weekly watering (6" depth via soaker hoses), no chemicals. Results: clover gone first year, grubs disappeared, lizards/toads/snakes appeared. Adds: corn gluten meal (pre-emergent), alfalfa meal (nutrients, blooms), lava sand (minerals), baking soda spray (fungus). All amendments compatible. Earthworms and microbes do the work.
