Soil and Water Testing
Soil Testing
Have you gotten a soil test recently?
Fall is generally the most desirable time to sample because landscapes and gardens are usually dry and easily accessible. The results could make a big impact on your lawn, garden or wildlife food plots.
A $10 soil sample can tell you the type and amount of nutrients that should be added for your lawn, garden and other plants. Pick up a soil sample bag or bring the two cups of soil in a plastic baggie or other clean container to the County Extension Office. Testing may take up to 10-14 days. We will mail or email you the results.
Water Testing
The basic water test is $25.00 and will tell you the pH and hardness of your water, and the metal content for 17 key metals. Bring your first draw in a clean, clear lidded container. Expanded tests are available if you are putting in a water treatment system or need more information. Call (912) 496-2040 for details.
