As the temperatures start to drop and the leaves begin to change color across northern Georgia, it’s time to start thinking about fall lawn care. One of the most important aspects of fall lawn care is ensuring that your soil is in good condition. Different types of soil are necessary for different aspects of lawn care in the fall.
Green Landscape Supply offers this guide to the soils you need for fall lawn care.
Topsoil
Topsoil is the uppermost layer of soil, and it’s crucial for fall lawn care. It’s where the majority of the nutrients and organic matter are found, and it’s the layer in which grass roots grow. Adding a layer of topsoil to your lawn in the fall can help improve the soil structure and provide a better environment for grass roots to grow.
Landscape Mix
Landscape mix is versatile soil that can be used for a variety of purposes in fall lawn care. It’s a blend of topsoil, compost and other organic materials, making it ideal for improving soil quality and promoting healthy grass growth. You can use landscape mix to fill in low spots in your lawn, improve drainage or simply provide a nutrient boost to your grass before the winter months.
Sod Dressing
Sod dressing, also known as top dressing, is a mixture of sand, soil and compost that is applied to the surface of the lawn. It can help to smooth out uneven areas, improve soil structure and provide an extra dose of nutrients to the grass. Applying sod dressing in the fall can help prepare your lawn for the winter months and ensure that it remains healthy and vibrant come spring.
Bio Mix Soil
Bio-mix soil is a specialized soil blend designed to promote healthy microbial activity in the soil. It’s rich in organic matter and beneficial microorganisms, which can help break down thatch, improve nutrient availability and support a healthy soil ecosystem. Using bio-mix soil in the fall can help improve the overall health of your lawn and set the stage for strong, vigorous grass growth in the coming year.
Flower Mix
While not specifically for lawns, flower mix soil can be useful for fall lawn care if you plan to plant fall flowers or bulbs. This type of soil is designed to provide the right balance of nutrients and drainage for flowering plants, and it can help ensure that your fall plantings thrive.
