Answer to Question 1

After seeding, the use of mulch provides a favorable environment for seed germination. Mulch
conserves soil moisture and prevents soil erosion. This is extremely important because adequate
surface moisture must be present for seed germination.



Answer to Question 2

Sprigging is the planting of a section of a rhizome or stolon, referred to as a sprig. A sprig may be up
to 6 to 8 inches in length. For successful establishment, a section of the sprig with several nodes must
be properly placed into the soil. Stolonizing is similar to sprigging, in that 6- to 8-inch sections of
rhizomes or stolons are used. However, in stolonizing, sprigs are broadcast onto the soil surface.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
