Use certified seed
The Extension Division of Virginia Tech and the University of Maryland have developed a seed labeling system, which is being used for Kentucky bluegrass. These seeds and blends adhere to the quality standards of the Division. They are inspected and certified by the Virginia Crop Improvement Association not to have grave weed contaminants and posses...
Soil care
Creating and maintaining quality lawn grass involves more than irrigation, fertilization, and pesticide applications. A dense, healthy turf demands proper mowing techniques, occasional detaching, and aerification in addition to the fertilization and pest control for the improvement in the lawn. You need to know when and how to use the cultural perf...
Selection of grass species
Grasses are classified as cool-season and warm-season grasses. The former have active growth in fall and spring (particularly when soil temperature is between 50-65 degrees F and air temperature between 60-75 degrees F) and are dormant in summer. The latter can stand high temperature and drought circumstances. Good growth occurs when soil temperatu...
Selecting high quality seeds
Seeding the lawn can have great rewards if done properly. The first thing to do is to select a grass type that is suited to grow in that area.

The amount of fertilizer to apply and the timing of it can affect bo...
