Ah, to run and play, or nap, or wiggle your bare toes on a lush and perfect greensward — it may seem like an unattainable dream, but good news! A fine-looking lawn is perfectly doable and within your reach if you approach the project gradually, doing the right thing month to month and year to year. Lawns consist of many different small plants, often different varieties of grasses. So growing grass is like raising a crop or a specialty garden of turf grass.

It’s worth it to put a lot of effort into your lawn, because a good lawn makes everything else look good, and a gorgeous, well-kept lawn sets the tone for an entire yard. The purpose of this chapter is to demystify the basics. Find out what to do, when, and how, and then you’re in business.
