Sometimes aeration and irrigation aren’t enough. In cases like these, it’s time to bring out the chemical agents—specifically lime in this case. Lime treatment balances soil acidity which leads to a more comfortable growing environment for grasses and other plants. Increased acid levels in your soil can be caused by a number of factors including nitrogen-based fertilizers, sulfuric water, or even compost.
Liming a lawn should only be completed by a professional lawn care company—this is because they run a full diagnostic test on your lawn, much like a doctor does for their patients. With Blades of Green, we perform an annual soil test in order to create a truly custom plan that helps your lawn thrive.
