Lois and Ernie Winchester of the members of the society
What is your soil's pH?
Harold Kerr, Morrow County
Extension Agent, tested soil
samples each lone Garden
Club member and guest
brought to their October
meeting at Pat Pettyjohn's
ranch home.
PH is a measure of the
degree of alkalinity or adicity
of the soil. Kerr stated, "Soil
in South Morrow County is
quite uniformally alkaline and
can be remedied by adding 2
tons of gypsum per acre."
Jean Nelson, President gave
the program "Your Soil and
the plants it will grow."
Alkaline soils can also be
improved with peat moss,
ground bark, pine needles or
sawdust and acid type fertili
zers. Preparation soil for
plants is very important.
Lawns need a topsoil depth of
6 to 8 inches for good roots,
annual plants 8 to 10 inches,
perennials and small shrubs
18 to 24 inches. Large shrubs
and trees need holes 2 times as
wide and deep as the roots.
Compost materials aged 3 to 6
months are good soil builders
plus mulching material.
