Nutrition®
SOIL ENHANCEMENT
LAWN & PLANT HEALTH CARE PROGRAM
For
years, the Pest Fog 4-step lawn care program has met
the basic needs of lawns in Corpus Christi. But
recently, more of our customers have experienced an
increase in fungal diseases and other problems
related to poor soil biology. These lawns were not
thriving and not meeting anybody’s expectations—so
we decided to offer a change. One alternative was to
apply fungicides, but they are expensive,
short-lived, and do not address the real underlying
problem(s). The other, more proactive, approach was
to build up the beneficial soil microbes in an
attempt to lessen fungal activity and promote a
healthier soil. Hence, the RevitaLawn Prescription
Nutrition® Program was born.
A
healthy soil supports a greater diversity of
beneficial micro-organisms, which in turn promotes a
thicker more resilient turf. Here in the
Coastal Bend, many issues—extreme heat, erratic
rainfall, insects, compacted soils, high soil &
water pH—limit turf longevity and ultimate health.
Combined with proper mowing and watering, the
RevitaLawn Prescription Nutrition® Program
enhances plant health and greatly reduces the
negative effects of weeds, pests, diseases, and the
extreme South Texas climate.
Adjust
Nutrients
In
simplistic terms, fertilization can be thought of as
applying only the macro-nutrients nitrogen,
phosphorus, and potassium (N-P-K). While N-P-K is a
must, the typical lawn requires a more comprehensive
program to thrive and look its very best.
RevitaLawn® wants to change the way people think
about “fertilization.” Our Prescription Program
feeds the soil first, which in turn feeds the lawn.
Modern horticultural and agricultural practices
dictate just the opposite. Most common synthetic
fertilizers and chemicals feed the plant, but at the
expense of sound, healthy soil.
While
not absolutely necessary before starting the
RevitaLawn® program, we highly recommend a soil
analysis. Adjusting nutrients based on soil test
results accelerates the healing process. Soil
has a chemical, physical, and biological component
all working in tandem. By balancing the
chemistry first, the physical and biological
components are much easier to adjust. Determining
the current status of the soil is an important first
step, as it provides a clearer picture of the
excesses, deficiencies, and imbalances present. Soil
testing is our road map, and allows fertility and
biological resources to be applied in the most
precise, efficient manner.

Frequently
Asked Questions
What if I want to change from my current lawn
program to RevitaLawn’s
Prescription Nutrition Program®?
No Problem. If you have paid for a season in
advance, we will apply the balance to the RevitaLawn
Program. If you pay by the service, we will continue
to bill for the treatments performed.
How is the Prescription Nutrition Program®
different from other programs?
At RevitaLawn, we make soil enhancement our primary
goal. Most programs rely on the use of soil damaging
highly acidic, salt based fertilizers. The
Prescription Program refrains from simple N-P-K
fertilization and incorporates means, methods, and
materials that address the chemical, physical, AND
biological needs of your soil and plants.

RevitaLawn is not just about lawns. Ask about our
programs designed to maximize the health and vigor
of your shrubs, ornamental beds, and trees.
Our goal…Your Total Satisfaction. The staff at

watering schedules, and provide ongoing monitoring
services to assure your landscape remains luscious
and vibrant.

the rampant fungal diseases present in the Coastal
Bend?
The Prescription Nutrition Program incorporates a
unique microbial inoculums to help combat the common
fungal pathogens present in the Coastal Bend. BEST
OF ALL…there is no extra cost to you, as this is
already part of our comprehensive program.
Is it true that increasing soil health and plant
vigor can decrease water use?
Yes, this is true. While this reduction in water use
does not happen overnight, the general trend across
the country has been a 25-30% decrease…AND what this
means for you is a smaller water bill.
