| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses preparation of sod beds, suggesting that "the most important consideration is to use generous quantities of complete fertilizer incorporated two to three inches deep into the sod bed." Mentions that "tamping or rolling to firm the sod into the soil, followed immediately by generous watering, will greatly improve the chances for rapid knitting and growth of the sod." |
