Abstract/Contents:Discusses the advantages of sodding during the October-April period to maximize dormancy and off-season effects. Lists advantages as being that it "improves the environment by reducing erosion, mud, dust and weeds around buildings...increases occupancy rates of newly finished construction projects such as homes and buildings...[and it] extends the producer's and landscape contractor's production time, thus reducing the peak demand season." States that good transplanting also depends on "proper soil preparation, good soil-to-sod contact, avoiding low temperature injury and proper water management to prevent desiccation."
