Abstract/Contents:Suggests that "whether the choice is sod or seeding, autumn weather is typically favorable for establishing turfgrass due to cooler weather and hopefully regular rainfall." Explains that "in most areas if [one is] not sure of the turfgrass species on the lawn, odds are it's Kentucky bluegrass." Concludes that "mowing turf helps it spread laterally and fill the areas, so start those engines as soon as...the grass [creeps] up to [the] established cutting height."
