Missouri City Soil Facts
Did you know that soils in Missouri City, Tx have an average Ph level of 8.13?!!
That’s really high! Ideally, that number should be around 6 for southern grasses like ours. High pH levels lock up nutrients, making them unavailable to the roots of your turf. This typically reveals itself as a “yellowing of the grass blades, ” poor health, and thin areas.
We often see newer homes using Bermuda grass (Bermuda requires less water), while established homes utilize St Augustine grass. GreenGate performs a free soil test on the very first visit for all of our first-time lawn fertilization customers, which gives us actionable data points for your custom lawn care program.

Our aerations help lawns breathe and grow deeper roots.
