Coastal Bermuda Grass Needs Lime for Optimal pH (6.0–7.0)

Yes, coastal Bermuda grass requires lime if soil pH falls below 6.0. The ideal range is 6.0–7.0. Acidic soils reduce nutrient availability and increase aluminum toxicity. Apply lime (calcitic or dolomitic) in fall or winter based on a soil test to determine the exact amount. Proper pH ensures vigorous growth, disease resistance, and efficient fertilizer use.
