Step 1 - Where will your grass live? |
Determining the area that your
grass will live is your first decision (Step
1). You do this by examining the transition map in use
with the other maps. This allows you to find your state and
location so that you can better determine what grasses will
survive and grow best in your lawn location.
This critical information applies to both
lawn and pasture uses for grasses. It does you no good to buy
and plant a warm season grass only to find that the hard freeze that
is normal for your winter will kill the grass. Same goes for
cool season grasses when the summer temps shrivel your grass to
nothing. Finding the right grass or MIX of grasses is
an important step in planting and obtaining a great lawn.
