If you&#8217;re not sure, it&#8217;s important to find out. As lawn treatment experts serving the Palm Coast, FL area,\u00a0Lawn Doctor of Daytona Beach knows this small number can have a big impact on the health and vitality of your lawn.<\/p>\n<p>Soil pH is simply a range that measures how basic or acidic soil conditions are. Ideally, for healthy grass, the number should be between 6.0 and 7.0. When it&#8217;s below 6.0, soil is too acidic to support robust growth; above 7.0 means it&#8217;s too alkaline for grasses.<\/p>\n<p>When soil pH is outside of a healthy range, it has a number of implications. For instance, nutrients can&#8217;t properly dissolve in the soil, making them unavailable for grass roots to absorb. This can lead to a host of issues from deficiencies to more susceptibility to diseases and weeds. In addition, fertilizers you do add to the soil won&#8217;t be as efficient\u00a0or won&#8217;t work at all. As a result, you&#8217;ll start to notice wilting, yellowing grass.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Lawn Treatment: How\u00a0pH Balancing\u00a0in the Palm Coast Area Works<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>At Lawn Doctor of Daytona Beach, we offer a pH balancing lawn treatment to local homeowners to\u00a0restore pH levels.
