 Turf report thanks Murf

Sometine this past spring Murf gave us a report on how to grow good sod, but I can't find the thread back. Anyhow the result is after following his advice we now have a nice looking rejuvinated front yard. First I sprayed it with 2-4-D to thin out the dandeloins and othere assorted weeds. I took soil samples, applied lime and fertilizer to the spec's called for from the soil analysis. I was way short on lime, and low enough on fetil;ity that I spread twice a month apart. Since spring I've reseeded twice just before a good soaking rain,(a bit of luck there). Thanks Murf. Frank.

 Turf report thanks Murf

Murf; Another turf queation for "Murf from Turf". We have had some nice comments on both the newly seeded part and the reseeded part of our lawn all this from following your advice. Now that winter is likely soon coming, should I stop mowing the new seeding or keep it mowed short? We have had plenty of rain and the temps. are staying above nornal so far. You said you would bear no responsibility for any extra lawnmower expense, but maybe you would like to make a guest appearance to drive the second mower I had to buy to keep ahead of the every fourth day mowing scheduel this summer. One of our Granddaughters overheard me telling the Mrs. about the advice from "Murf" so she said, Oh, he must be "Murf from Turf". Frank.
