We are building a new home and need all the information we can get about putting in a yard,starting with the soil. Do we need it tested before we plant anything? We're still building so we have time before starting the yard. |
Cheryle, I am sorry for this delayed reply to your gardening question. The spring rush has brought a deluge of questions and we are working hard to catch up! You would do well to have your soil tested first but that is not a necessity for putting in a lawn. It is more important for flower beds and vegetable garden areas. You can soil test the lawn after it is established if you like. The following web site provides information on growing a great lawn in Georgia: http://pubs.caes.uga.edu/caesp... Thanks for the question. Best wishes for a wonderful gardening season. Please stop in again soon! |
