Did you know that soil health has a big impact on your grass?

Healthy soil equals a healthy lawn. Many homeowners overlook what’s happening beneath the surface, but soil quality affects everything from drought tolerance to color to how well grass absorbs nutrients.
In 2026, consider making soil health a priority by:

  • Testing your soil to understand its pH and nutrient balance
  • Adding organic matter such as compost to boost microbial activity
  • Aerating compacted soil to improve airflow and water penetration
  • Using slow-release or balanced fertilizers that feed the soil as well as the turf

Strengthening soil isn’t a quick fix, but it’s one of the most powerful long-term investments you can make in your lawn.
