Common Causes:
Imbalanced Soil pH
Too acidic or too alkaline.
Compaction
limits air and water movement.
Salt Buildup
From irrigation or poor fertility use

Excess of one nutrient blocking others.

How We Fix It
Our specialties
$99 Soil Test
Turfgrass specific labratory testing measures pH, nutrient levels, and indicators of soil health unique to Oklahoma lawns.
Analyse Result
Your lab report is reviewed by a Newell Services Certified Applicator who interprets the data—not just the numbers. We identify any imbalances or nutrient tie-ups affecting root uptake and overall turf performance.
Adjust Fertilization Plan
Each year’s soil test results guide adjustments to your fertilization program, ensuring nutrients are applied in the right form and ratio for your specific soil conditions.
Recommend Supplemental Inputs
If the results reveal deficiencies outside the scope of your current fertilization plan, we’ll recommend targeted supplements such as organic matter, micronutrients, or pH-corrective applications.
Start Work
Once you approve the recommendations, we implement the corrective treatments that unlock bound nutrients and rebuild healthy soil function—setting the stage for stronger, greener turf.
We only use professional fertilizers like Harrell's.
