Pelletized Lawn Lime

Pelletized Lime Treatment for Grass

New England’s acidic soil can make it very difficult to grow a beautiful, healthy lawn. Soil acidity is measured in pH (“potential of hydrogen”) on a scale of 0 to 14. Zero is extremely acidic, 14 is very alkaline and 7 is neutral.

Acidic soil can inhibit the amount of nutrients turf can absorb and limit how impactful pesticides are, such as that used in our grub control and treatment service.

That’s why we apply our pelletized lawn treatment to your lawn to help balance out your soil’s pH. Cool-season grasses grow best when they’re in soil that has a pH between 6 and 7.2. Lawns that don’t receive consistent pelletized lime treatments usually appear washed out and discolored because the turf isn’t absorbing the proper amount of nitrogen and nutrients.

Pelletized lime treatment is a major part of our lawn treatment service. By balancing your lawn’s pH, we ensure it can take full advantage of the fertilizer and controls we apply throughout the year.
