Serving Fairfield and Westchester County
Turf grass is ideally grown in slightly acidic soil, which is measured by the pH level. The optimum pH range for lawns is 6.5 to 7.0. Balanced pH is necessary for plants to receive proper nutrients that help maintain lawn health and vigor. When soil becomes too acidic or alkaline, nutrients that grass plants need to thrive become unavailable, resulting in unhealthy turf. To ensure maximum nutrient availability and correct pH, Lawn Doctor recommends applying lime.
Lime helps restore the physical condition of soil, providing you with the following benefits:
- Increases fertilizer effectiveness: When soil pH is controlled with lime, nutrients are readily available, allowing fertilizers to work better.
- Reduces thatch: Lime slows the growth of the thatch layer, which becomes a barrier to air, water and fertilizer. Lime encourages microbial action that breaks down thatch.
- Reduces fungus problems: Proper pH levels promote favorable growing conditions, encouraging healthy plants that are less susceptible to damage caused by disease.
