    The sandy loam soil in Upper Marlboro affects how you handle basic lawn care tasks:

    • Adjust fertilizing schedule based on the slightly acidic pH of 6.2
    • Test soil yearly to monitor nutrient levels with a soil test kit

    The soil contains good amounts of key nutrients, but regular fertilizer applications help maintain healthy grass growth. Follow these steps for better results:

    1. Check soil organic matter - Upper Marlboro's 3.98% is good for grass growth
    2. Time lawn mowing based on grass growth, not set schedules
    3. Skip weed killer applications when possible - healthy grass naturally limits weeds
    4. Create a custom plan that matches your lawn's specific needs
