A soil amendment is any material added to a soil to improve its physical properties, such as water retention, permeability, water infiltration, drainage and structure. The goal is to provide a better soil environment for plant roots.
Organic amendments increase soil organic matter content and offer many benefits. Organic matter improves soil structure, water infiltration, and both water- and nutrient-holding capacity. Many organic amendments contain plant nutrients and act as organic fertilizers.
Organic matter is an important energy source for the bacteria, fungi and earthworms that live in the soil and are beneficial to the soils quality.
Once applied to the surface, the organic product will enter the soil over time through regular watering of your lawn and/or rainfall. Regardless of the pH of your soil, it is recommended to periodically add organic matter back into your soil for the overall benefits it provides.
AgriLawn’s professional grade organic amendments will return the needed organic matter to the soil and help your lawn perform to its maximum potential. We recommend a minimum of two treatments per year and as many as four for optimal performance.
