    Typical lawn size in Johns Island 3,810 sq. ft.
    Dominant grass type in Johns Island Warm season grasses like bermudagrass, zoysiagrass, and centipedegrass
    Typical soil pH for Johns Island lawns 6.3, slightly acidic

    Key soil nutrients in Johns Island lawns Phosphorus: 146 ppm, Calcium: 978 ppm, Iron: 164 ppm

    Johns Island lawn care starts with understanding your soil. The sandy soil composition means water moves through quickly, which affects how you water and feed your lawn. Most Johns Island lawns need consistent, light watering rather than deep, infrequent soaking.

    The slightly acidic soil pH of 6.3 works well for warm-season grasses common in South Carolina. While phosphorus and iron levels are good, other nutrients may need attention. A soil test can help you track your lawn's specific needs.

    Key steps for lawn care in Johns Island:

    • Water early morning to reduce evaporation
    • Mow warm-season grass at 2-3 inches high
    • Apply fertilizer during active growth periods
    • Add organic matter to improve sandy soil
    • Choose grass types that handle heat well

    The average Johns Island lawn size of 3,810 square feet means you'll need about 4-5 bags of fertilizer per application. Creating a custom lawn plan helps you time these applications with your grass type and local growing season.
