Soil testing is used to determine the pH of the soil, whether it is acidic or alkaline, and the levels of the
primary nutrients, phosphorus and potassium, available for turf grass to use. We take numerous samples of soil
throughout your lawn and send them to our regional lab for testing. The sample usually takes about two to three
weeks to come back. Once we receive the results, we will prepare a report about the test results. In the report, we will let you know if lime is required to adjust the pH level of your soil. The ideal pH level is around 6.3-6.5. If lime is required, we will spell out exactly how much lime is needed, the total number of applications, and the additional cost for this service if you decide to have us apply it for you. The price will include labor, materials, and clean up for all applications needed. You won't have to do a thing. We will also explain how we will adjust your annual fertilization program to meet the particular needs of your lawn. This way, every lawn receives exactly what it needs. Soil testing should be done every two years. |
