Soil-tested lawn treatment in Cornish
Lawns in Cornish need a feed plan that fits a cold spring and ground that ranges from heavy river-bottom soil to old cropland. A soil test each September tells us which kind of ground your lawn sits on.
The ground in Cornish
Cornish lawns sit low on the valley floor near the Bear River. Ground close to the river is often heavy bottom soil that stays wet in spring. Farther from the river, many lots were cropland for generations.
Lawn problems we look for in Cornish
Later spring green-up
A late spring and an early fall often leave Cornish grass fewer weeks to build roots. In October we put down a winterizer feed while the roots are still active. That fall feed helps the lawn green up early the next spring.
River-bottom ground
Heavy bottom soil near the Bear River often holds water and packs down. Roots in packed soil stay shallow and dry out first in August. We read compaction on site with a compaction meter. If the reading shows packed soil, core aeration in September loosens it.
Low phosphorus on former farm ground
Years of crops can draw the phosphorus out of farm ground. Grass that is short on phosphorus builds roots slowly. Your soil report gives the phosphorus level in your lawn. If the level is low, we switch to a feed that adds phosphorus.
We feed your Cornish lawn at all six visits and treat the whole lawn for weeds in May and August
