Soil ph Testing & Lawn Counseling
We will test your soil ph for free. Just bring us at least a cup (8 oz) of your lawn or garden soil from an area at least 2-3 inches down from the surface. Feel free to bring us multiple samples from your different lawn areas. For better pH readings, if your soil is dry, please water before collecting the sample.
