    Lakewood, CA lawns average 1530 sq ft with a mix of warm and cool-season grasses like bermudagrass and tall fescue. The soil is slightly basic with a pH of 7.7 and contains good organic matter at 4.52%.

    With a sandy loam soil composition (53% sand, 30% silt, 18% clay), lawn care in Lakewood requires specific approaches:

    • Watering needs: Sandy soil drains quickly, so more frequent watering may be necessary during California's dry periods
    • Nutrient levels: Good potassium (265.5 ppm) and phosphorus (142 ppm) support root development and stress resistance
    • Iron content: The 144.5 ppm of iron helps maintain vibrant green color in your grass

    For effective Lakewood lawn care, adjust mowing heights seasonally - higher in summer for cool-season grasses and lower for warm-season varieties. The soil's high calcium content (2851 ppm) may affect how nutrients are absorbed.

    Consider a Sunday soil test kit to monitor your specific lawn's needs. For seasonal weed control tips tailored to Southern California conditions, check out The Shed for expert guidance.

      Lakewood, California FAQs

      Traditional lawn care services can cost up to $1500 per year. Sunday offers more affordable custom lawn care plans starting between $55-100, based on your lawn size. Plans include custom fertilizer, soil testing, options for weeds and pests, and expert advice. Lakewood homeowners can save hundreds each year while getting effective, personalized lawn care delivered to their door.

      Look for a program that accounts for your specific soil needs and Lakewood's climate. Consider product safety if you have children or pets. Check if the program offers customized solutions rather than one-size-fits-all approaches. Sunday creates personalized plans based on your lawn's soil, size, and local climate data, delivering the right nutrients when your lawn needs them.

      Focus on proper watering by going deep but infrequent. Apply fertilizer at the right times using Sunday's custom nutrient plans tailored to your soil needs. Mow at the correct height, keeping grass slightly taller in summer. Control weeds by maintaining thick grass and using targeted treatments when needed. Sunday's DIY approach makes this simple with custom schedules.

      Lakewood's warm climate requires smart watering practices. Water deeply early in the morning to reduce evaporation. Choose heat-tolerant grass varieties suited to Southern California. Apply fertilizer during prime growing seasons, not during summer heat stress. Sunday's custom plans account for Lakewood's climate, sending you the right products at optimal application times.

      Sunday's custom lawn plans are perfect for busy Lakewood homeowners. Everything arrives at your door exactly when you need it. Application is quick with clear instructions.
