If not, it&#8217;s a number you need to find out. As local lawn treatment experts serving Savannah, GA, we know that when soil pH is out of balance, it can lead to a variety of problems in your lawn.\u00a0The biggest problem it can cause\u00a0involves nutrient uptake. When pH levels are too high or low, it impacts and limits the mechanism within grass roots that enables them to\u00a0absorb nutrition from the soil. As a result, over time, your grass will start to weaken,\u00a0becoming more susceptible to issues with weeds and diseases.<\/p>\n<p>The good news is that all it takes is a simple test and easy applications to amend your soil and get it into healthy shape. And with\u00a0Lawn Doctor of Savannah-Beaufort County, we make the process easy with our pH testing and balancing\u00a0lawn treatments. Here&#8217;s how our approach works:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>One of Lawn Doctor of Savannah-Beaufort County&#8217;s\u00a0trained treatment technicians will come out to your lawn to test the soil. This involves removing thatch, grass, and rock from a few small areas to take a sample that gets into the root zone.<\/li>\n<li>The ideal pH for most grass types is 6.5 to 7.0, but between 6.0 to 7.0 is the target. If your pH level is high, above 7.0, then soil conditions are too alkaline. If it&#8217;s low, below 6.0, then your soil is too acidic.<\/li>\n<li>For overly\u00a0alkaline soil, Lawn Doctor of Savannah-Beaufort County can apply treatments that are a mixture of sulfur and water to lower the pH and raise acidity. For soil that&#8217;s too acidic, an application of lime works best to increase the alkalinity.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Different grass types can tolerate a range of pH levels, which is why it&#8217;s always best to work with trained professionals to balance your pH levels. With Lawn Doctor of Savannah-Beaufort County&#8217;s treatments, we can take into account the unique condition of your lawn, as well as the grass varieties within it, all to ensure your soil pH is at an optimal level for high performance.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Lawn Treatment Experts in Savannah: Learn More About Our Services<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Soil pH is a small number that has a big impact on the health of your lawn.
