RE: Soil Testing Results for the Odells Property in Fort Collins, Colorado
Dear David:
Attached are the soils analysis results from CSU for the vacant land to the north of Odells at 800 E.
Lincoln Avenue in Fort Collins. There were 3 samples taken from the north, middle and south
sections of the land. Samples were taken as deeply as possible, between 6" -12" below the surface
as the earth was very compacted and a backhoe would be needed to dig any deeper. For each sample
site, soils were taken from 5 different places and mixed as outlined in the soil sample directions.
The soils are suitable for growing native grasses. Lime is high and that is okay. For example, native
plants thrive in areas with limestone bedrock geology to the north of Fort Collins.
I spoke with Wilma Trujillo, the soils laboratory manager atCSU, to discuss and interpret the results
and the soils will be fine as a substrate for native grasses and plants. Wilma indicated that the onsite
soils are suitable for native vegetation without any amendments or changes to the nutrient/mineral
levels. If desired, a thin layer of topsoil could be used to cover the soil.
Please contact me with any questions.
