Soil health testing focuses on measuring the potential rate of biological activity and the levels of carbon and nitrogen. A soil health test score provides a number related to these characteristics, a higher number = more healthy soil.

Soil Health Add Test

The “Add Test” can be included with any standard soil analysis – from basic to diagnostic summary reports – no need for two soil samples. The Soil Health Add Test covers the seven key analyses of soil health that are the most valuable to turf grass management: Soil Health Score, CO₂ Respiration, Total Carbon, Total Nitrogen, C:N Ratio, Mineralizable Nitrogen, and Mineralizable Phosphorous. The Add Test analysis is just $30/sample.
