Review Summary: Get the 2nd Editon Date: 2007-10-09
 
Details: The book is quite solid, well written & illustrated. No qualms there.

However, Amazon sells both the 1st & 2nd edition for the same price -- but makes no mention of there being a 2nd edition here. This is the FIRST edition, get the second instead. Do a search for "Scotts Lawn".

Also, as someone else mentions, this book (1st ed) is an updated version of the Ortho book on Lawns.

Again, the book is solid, but look for the 2007 2nd edition.
 
Review Summary: A Great Book on Lawn Care but... Date: 2007-04-19
 
Details: I was looking for the perfect all in one book but that's really impossible right? Well, this is a really good book but the one thing I think it misses are the "organic" options to things like fertilizers and pest defense. All in all it's a great help but I would have liked to see organic fertilizing options and organic pest control. In any case it will get your lawn green again.
 
Review Summary: Excited to Start Renovating my Lawn! Date: 2007-04-16
 
Details: We bought a brand new house last year with an acre of land and had no idea how to take care of the freshly laid lawn. A year of trial and error and the lawn is covered in weeds and missing patches. I just started reading this book and am already very impressed. It has simple steps and is written so clearly that I, someone who killed a lawn, feel comfortable starting over. If you want an easy to follow book with wonderful hints this is your book. I cannot wait to start fixing our lawn!
 
Review Summary: Lawn care heaven Date: 2007-01-10
 
Details: This is a fantastic book. Better than many that cost much more. My dad reads it, looks at the photos and drawings, and is making plans for the spring.
 
Review Summary: Scotts Lawn guide Date: 2006-11-10
 
Details: Excellent practical resource for maintaining your home lawn. I found many good practical applications in this book. I would recommend it for anyone that just wants to use for making sure their home lawn is well maintained.
