I tested my lawn soil and it came to about 8 which kind of surprised
me. I live up north (cleveland, OH), although I do not know what kind
of northern grass I have. What is the best way to lower the pH and
what is the best way to go about doing it? I was told that Ironite
(iron sulfate among other things) helps but am not sure how many
applications or over what period I should apply it.

Any help appreciated. My lawn does not look too g0od and I want to do
anything to spruce it up. I just dethatched and fertilized and want
to get this pH thing down.

Thanks,

Are you sure it's 8 in Cleveland? hrm..you'll need sulfur to lower
your PH to between 6 and 7. Forget the iron, you'll end up putting way too
much down.

Very strange...you're not growing grass over some old limestone gravel
by any chance, are you?
