| Question: | "You speak of sowing German bent seed the latter part of August. Is there any objection to sowing that seed in June if the greens are kept well sprinkled? We should like to get the benefit from new seeding this season if possible." |

| Answer/Response: | "From the experience we have had in sowing grass seed in summer we would advise you to wait until the latter part of August before seeding. Seedlings of our northern perennial turf grasses do not seem able to combat the conditions of summer, and it is rare that under such conditions they come through and establish themselves. Of course, it is possible that a small percentage of the seedlings might survive the summer conditions, but we have found late summer or early fall seeding much more satisfactory." |
