With a sandy loam composition (58% sand, 32% silt, 10% clay), Salem soil drains well but may need attention during New Hampshire's hot summer months.

For effective lawn care in Salem:

Soil pH adjustment: Consider lime application to raise pH slightly for better nutrient absorption
Watering strategy: Water deeply but infrequently due to sandy soil composition
Fertilization timing: Apply nutrients in spring and fall when cool-season grasses actively grow
Mowing height: Keep grass taller (3-4 inches) during summer heat

The nutrient profile shows adequate phosphorus but could benefit from additional potassium for improved drought and disease resistance. A Sunday Custom Lawn Plan can help address these specific Salem lawn care needs with targeted treatments.

Sunday Lawn treatment has done wonders for our yard. We purchased a home that had a very neglected lawn. After trying a lawn service for a couple of years and was disappointed with the outcome and the noticeable lack of butterflies and bees. Since switching to Sunday we feel the lawn is thicker and see more insects.
