Answer to Question 1

Nine important considerations when starting a lawn by seeding include
1. Select the right seed
2. Sow the seed properly according to the seed package label
3. Sow half the seed in a north-south direction and the other half in an east-west
direction
4. Cover the seed
5. Mulch the seed with the appropriate material
6. Mulches applied evenly and lightly may be left in place and allow the grass to grow
through


7. On a sloped bank, use Curlex to help retain moisture
8. Water the seed to keep it moist
9. Avoid saturating the soil



Answer to Question 2

Examples of materials that are used to increase the organic matter in a new lawn are
well-rotted sawdust, weed-free, well-rotted manure, composted leaves and grass, or
commercial peat moss at the rate of 6 cubic feet per 1,000 square feet of land.



Answer to Question 3

Three of the following unique characteristics of the fine fescue grasses are that the grass
blade folds into a tight V in bright sunlight to conserve moisture, provide a cooling
effect, and reduce carbon dioxide. Other features include the following:
 Grow in shady areas
 Low-maintenance (minimal fertilizer, pesticide needed)
 Tolerate dry, infertile acidic soils
 Require less water than other varieties of cool-season grasses

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
