The Different Seasons of Lawn Grass Planting a new lawn can be a very rewarding process. The least expensive route to planting a new lawn is to plant grass seed. However, if you choose the wrong kind of grass seed, all of your time and money will be wasted. Before you go out and purchase grass seed, you should know what type of grass will grow in your environment and growing season. Tilling cracks the top soil and lets it mix with the seeds. By the process of tilling most of the nutrients are absorbed by the soil and therefore it allows it to be absorbed by the plants and promotes a quality yield. Carts are used in lawns and gardens to carry heavy objects and waste grass from one place to another. Acidic soils generally occur in areas where there is high rainfall, while alkaline soils seem to be more prevalent in areas where there is minimal rainfall. To ensure that you are getting a proper soil test, you should take it to a professional. Most soil testing rates start at around $25 and they are well worth it. You should not mow your new lawn until it is at least 2 inches tall. After the first mowing, it is recommended that you apply a fertilizer to your new lawn. After you apply the turf fertilizer, you should water your lawn. This will help to prevent burn. You should protect your new lawn from trauma. Keep lawn traffic to a bare minimum during the first month. It is of no use planting a drought resistant grass in an area where you can get plenty of water. Fescue is an excellent grass, which makes really good lawns. On the other hand, you can also choose between Kentucky Bluegrass, Ryegrass, and even grasses, which can make excellent turf. Fine Fescue comes in a number of varieties, especially Red Fescue. This is crucial in new lawn care. Daily watering will help the roots to get established. Keep the turf very moist. If you are experiencing a drought in your area, or if you live in a very hot climate, you may need to water your new lawn twice a day. While the key to new lawn care requires keeping the turf moist, you should not over water your new lawn to the point where it is a wet, muddy mess.
