    Doc shows the new Soil PH tester on the lawn and farm fields. Then he applies lime to raise the PH on the putting green. Lime applications can be done any time, but heavy applications should be done on the lawn in the off season.

    Great video Doc! What do you recommend for lowering pH? I did a soil test about a month ago and it came back at about 8.2. Thanks!

    Is that reading the air temperature or the soil temperature?

    Does it say how wet it is besides simply wet or dry?

    So wait, you have 3.1 and it’s still green? So when I have a 5.9 on my lawn I don’t need to add lime? I did a soil test and ended up with 5.9 Ph granted done in March. Recommendation was to add lime. Comments.?

    Doc, is there any particular reason why you didn't get your lime from The Andersons?

    • @HowTowithDoc
      @HowTowithDoc  Рік тому +2

      Lime is cheap and heavy. It's best to buy in bulk from a store.

  • @markp5228
    @markp5228 Рік тому

    any chance the low pH on the putting green is due to the fertilizer added before planting? Most N in fertilizer can lower pH, I know you added some prior to planting, and the blades look pretty small so there is probably still a large residual in the soil... maybe an NPK test is in order to see if excess N is causing the low pH?
