| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses rollers, stating that "rollers are useful in turf establishment and maintenance operations...in soil preparation for seeding or sodding...for firming and leveling newly seeded or sodded areas and...to counteract heaving caused by freezing and thawing." Suggests that "in established turf, rolling is necessary once and only once a year; this in the early spring after the frost has left the ground. The purpose of this rolling is to counteract soil and plant heaving caused by frost action." |
