Paul is returfing his kikuyu lawn with couch, so he reached out to discuss his soil profile. Clay was known to be present and potentially causing some issues, so we took a closer look. The soil we inspected actually looked ok, although ordinarily in need of some nutrients.
However, upon an expanded search, it goes to show how quickly soil conditions can change. Some plugs are mostly loam, whereas others are 40% clay.
Soil conditions (and any variations) should always be considered when choosing soil amendments and preparing to returf or a lawn renovation.
Reach out if you want to discuss your soil conditions for any lawn plans.
