Had a neighbour who used a company called chemlawn to keep his lawn.
Beautiful green lawn. Sold the house and the new owner didn't keep up
the chemlawn. Totally dead lawn within a year, and needed to resod.


He probably didn't water it either.


I think it's been some 20 years since Chemlawn operated under that
name... they changed to Truegreen... "Chem" didn't go over too well.
Back then on Long Island Chemlawn trucks were as visible as Good Humor
trucks.

Most folks don't water lawns properly... really not possible without
an automatic irrigation system.
