Soil-tested lawn treatment in Logan
Older yards near downtown Logan tend to deal with shade and thatch. Newer lawns on the east bench tend to dry out fast.
The ground in Logan
Logan climbs from the Logan River up to the east bench. The older neighborhoods downtown and on the Island sit low, and big trees shade many of their lawns. The bench is gravel and sand left by Lake Bonneville.
Lawn problems we look for in Logan
Lime-rich, high-pH soil
Logan soil is rich in lime and stays alkaline. Alkaline soil often locks up iron. Grass that is short on iron turns yellow-green. If the grass is watered and still growing, iron is the likely cause. Our June visit adds liquid iron to the feed to green the grass for several weeks.
Fast-draining bench lots
Grass on the bench often browns sooner in a dry spell than grass downtown because water drains through bench soil quickly. Water less often and for longer so the roots grow down. The potassium in our June feed also helps the grass handle heat and drought.
Shade and thatch near downtown
Mature trees in older Logan neighborhoods shade the grass and take its water. Shaded grass thins out, and old lawns also build thatch. In September, fall renovation aerates the lawn and overseeds the thin spots.
