    Normal, Illinois lawns average 4402 sq ft and feature cool-season grasses like tall fescue and Kentucky bluegrass. The soil in Normal has a basic pH of 7.6 with good organic matter (5.55%) and a silty clay loam composition (65% silt, 21% clay, 14% sand).

    These soil conditions influence lawn care practices in Normal:

    • Mowing height: Keep cool-season grasses at 3-4 inches tall during summer to promote deeper roots
    • Watering: The heavy silt content retains moisture well but can compact easily
    • Fertilizing: The high pH may limit nutrient availability, especially iron and phosphorus

    Normal lawn care should address these specific challenges. A Sunday Custom Lawn Plan can help manage the slightly alkaline soil conditions common throughout Illinois.

    For best results with weed control and overall lawn health, consider getting a Sunday soil test kit to precisely measure your property's nutrient levels. Find more seasonal lawn care tips for Illinois at The Shed.
