The soil below your grass in Groveport, Galloway or Gahanna may need help. In fact, over 95% of all lawns that we have done soil testing on have some deficiencies, often significant deficiencies. Like a farmer seeking the highest yield on crops, the farmer’s fields are measured and amended to get the highest yield.
We look at your lawn as the crop you are raising. For this reason, we do soil tests. Soil enrichment is usually needed to provide the best soil to get or maintain a great lawn.
What does soil enrichment entail? We have developed a program that has many nutrients not typically found in fertilizer. These include microorganisms, molasses, vitamin B-1 and many other natural elements that help your lawn fight disease, hot temperatures, insects, and drought.
Most new builds have extremely poor soil that remains after the topsoil is excavated and sold. It is common to see new sod struggle and amendments are needed to improve the soil conditions. Keep in mind that nutrients that exist in the soil get consumed by the grass.
Fertilization provides basic nutrients but not additional nutrients, in most cases. We have found our soil enrichment program helps high fungus and strengthen the grass as far more nutrients are part of the soil enrichment program. Think of it as a multivitamin for your lawn.
