* Don't guess...Soil Test *
- This is a very important step in Turfgrass management that many companies fail to do for their customers in checking the soil nutrient levels
- Many commercial companies just throw down heavy lime applications in the spring or fall on warm season Turfgrasses and this may not actually be necessary or can make your soil composition worse by raising the pH to a higher than optimal level for turf at/above 7.0
- This helps create a map of what areas need what nutrients so the program can be tailored to meet the needs of the property...not the needs of the Application Contractor
* Liquid Aeration *
The goal of aerating a lawn is to get more oxygen, water and nutrients into the root zone.
Improving the aeration within the soil is especially beneficial to lawns that are growing in clay or moderately compacted soils
- Liquid aeration creates fractures within the soil allowing for deeper penetration of water and nutrients...roots will in turn follow suit in making the nutrients available that were previously unreachable by the plant
- Liquid aeration can be done anytime during the active growing season
- Liquid aeration covers the entire lawn area
- There is no need to mark sprinkler heads, invisible fences or underground power/cable lines
