When examining the pH of your soil, we are referring to its alkaline or acidity level. Plant, tree, and grass varieties can thrive or struggle depending on the pH of your soil. In Lebanon, TN, for example, a particularly rocky region, the soil’s pH is affected by the minerals in the rock and the moisture they provide. Therefore, certain varieties will thrive in that area more so than they would in less rocky region, such as Franklin, TN.
Every region is different and that is why we make pH testing a regular part of our maintenance program. The kind of grass you want can thrive or struggle depending on the pH of your soil. We base our maintenance programs on the needs of your lawn, which could be remarkably different than your neighbor’s lawn.
If you are unsure about the pH levels of your soil for your gardening, grass, or landscaping needs, give us a call at 615-223-5537 or email us.
