Lawn Seeding

Friday, September 24th, 2010

From the last week in August till the middle of October is seeding season. As we posted earlier, this has been the worst year in the last 20 years for sustaining turf and there is a lot of seeding that needs to be done. By seeding this fall the grass plants will have the the greatest amount of time to mature and develop a strong root system before we go into the stressful time next summer.  Here are some reliable information on seeding best practices.

Here is a great link from our friend Dr. Rodney St. John at Kansas State University.  In this video he describes what we go through in the seeding process to deliver the best results.    YouTube Video.

Here is another article from the University of Arkansas http://turf.uark.edu/turfhelp/archives/091610%20Fescue%20Renovation.htm
