I'm curious how many of you actually do organic programs on a large scale. Like 250 accounts or more strictly organic. just wondering how reallistic it is.

We have been doing this since 1986. For a short time many years ago we added a chemical option and then ended it a short time later. Other than that blip in judgment many years ago we have been providing lawn care without "traditional pesticides".joe7588 said:Thanks for responding, I know its physically possible to have that many accounts. I myself have over 350 fert. accounts, but none are organic. I guess I should of phrased my question a little differently. I'm trying to see if anyone has been able to build a strictly organic company, that has been able to handle a large number of accounts, maintain a high quality of turf and most importantly
keep the customers happy with how the lawn looks.
The "organic" portion is basically a difference in the fert you choose! The problem will be dealing with the weeds.joe7588 said:Thanks for responding, I know its physically possible to have that many accounts. I myself have over 350 fert. accounts, but none are organic.
