It is preferable to sow the seed as soon as the ground is warm and workable in the spring says D. B. McNeill, horticul- tural specialist. Depending on where you live, this could be any time between April 15 and May 15 or a little later in more northerly regions. The idea is to get the young grass seedlings firmly established before the heat of summer. It is essential to have good topsoil for a good lawn; the more the better, but four to six inches is a minimum requirement. Work this up well, pack and level. Prior to seeding, apply fertil- izer containing nitrogen, phos- phorus and potash and work it in well. The essential ingredient for the best germination is phos- phorus and the fertilizer used should be high in this element. Seeding is best done by a. broadcaster.
