Built for a coastal climate, not a generic program
Marin gets almost no rain from May through October, then a mild, wet winter — which means most national lawn-care programs, written for climates with rain spread evenly across the year, get the timing wrong here. Add in coastal fog that keeps shaded yards damp long after the sun’s out, and a standard monthly schedule ends up either wasting water or missing a real disease window.
The Turf Care Program times each application to what actually happens in Marin: early feeding before the dry season sets in, fungal-disease prevention timed to peak fog months, and a fall application that rebuilds the lawn before winter rain arrives — all scheduled around your town’s actual watering-day restrictions.
Most Marin lawns fail from fog and shade, not heat — the program is built around that.
