In order for your turf to respond correctly to fertilizers, a proper soil pH is needed. We strive to maintain a pH somewhere between the 5.8–7.2 range, with 6.5 being ideal. The only way to identify if your soil pH is ideal or not is through a soil test.
We send our soil tests to Spectrum Analytic in Ohio rather than doing them in-house. This will provide a more complete and accurate soil pH test and give valuable information on other possible soil nutrient problems on your lawn. With this basic soil test, we’ll also be able to determine other deficiencies your soil may have, such as Phosphorus, Potassium, Calcium, Magnesium, and organic matter. This test will also provide us with lime or sulfur recommendations to correct any pH problem.
A $10 fee will cover our expenses for this. We strongly encourage all customers to subscribe to a soil test every 2-3 years. Let us know if you would like for us to provide this new soil test for you. It can be done at any time during the season.
