Abstract/Contents: | Discusses seeding services. States that "Canada-based Heratige Green, began seeding services because the Canadian Governement started cracking down on lawn care pesticides." Notes that "getting the clients to buy into the idea of seeding took a bit of work. The thing was trying to convince them growing grass from seed produces a better quality lawn over the long term, than growing it from sod." Notes that "on average, it costs about 10 cents per square foot to seed, whereas it can cost up to $4 to sod." |
