So what exactly is pH and why does it matter?\u00a0The pH scale measures alkalinity and\u00a0acidity. When it comes to your soil, it’s important to have a pH that’s between\u00a06.0 and 7.0. A number below that indicates acidic conditions, while above 7.0 means your soil is too alkaline.<\/p>\n

If your soil is outside the 6.0 to 7.0 range, it has a number of implications. First and foremost, it impacts nutrient uptake. This simply means that minerals in the soil that your grass needs to grow \u2013 such as nitrogen, potassium, and phosphorous \u2013 become unavailable for absorption or grass roots begin taking in too much of them. Either way, your lawn will begin to suffer, putting it at risk for weeds, heavy surface thatch, diseases, and more.<\/p>\n
