FINISHING
FINISHING After the area is seeded it should
be lightly raked and rolled again. When
the grass is about 3 inches high it should
be cut, with the blade of the machine set
high so as not to take off too much. And
the areas should be weeded from time to
time, as the weeds appear. There are always
bound to be a few of these and the sooner
they are removed the better. If the weather
is dry the lawn must be watered, but a
fine spray left on for a long period is
essential. A heavy spray washes out the
grass roots, and a light sprinkling tends
to draw the roots to the surface, where
they dry out all the quicker. now
it's seeding time!
