Steps to Establishing
A New Lawn
Early fall is a good time to start
a new lawn or renovate an old one.
For detailed instructions, ask for
Extension Circular 412, Renova
tion of Lawns from your county
extension office. Here’s a few
general steps.
Have your soil tested to deter
mine if it needs lime or fertilizer.
Take soil cores from at least IS
spots randomly over the lawn to
obtain a representative sample. If
you have a problem area, take
separate soil samples from each.
Scrape away and discard sur
face debris before taking sampc.
Sample to a two-or-three-inch
depth. Collect the sample in a
clean container. Mix the core sam
plings, air dry and remove roots
and stones. Fill the soil test mail
ing container and identify the
sample. Complete the Information
Sheet giving all the information
requested. Soil sample mailing
kits are available from Penn State
Cooperative Extension. The cost
is $6.
Rough grade the area, removing
all debris including large stones.
Grade off high spots and fill low
spots. You may need additional
soil.

Lime according to soil test.
Apply 25 to SO pounds of limes
tone per 1000 square feet if no test
was taken.
Apply basic fertilizer (pho
sphate and/or potash) according to
soil test recommendations. Before
an October seeding, broadcast and
rake into a soil depth of 2-4
inches, 20 pounds of 0-20-20 fer
tilizer, per 1000 square feet plus
25 to 30 pounds per 1000 square
feet of 10-5-5 fertilizer. 35 percent
or more of the total nitrogen
should be as water insoluablc nit
rogen. Rent a rototiller to till
materials including organic mat
ter, compost a fertilizer into a
four-to-six-inch soil depth.
Finish grade by hand or rake to
remove stones or debris. Raking is
necessary to smooth the surface. If
possible, allow.the area to settle
for about a week before final rak
ing. A heavy watering speeds up
the settling.
Apply seed by dividing total
seed quantity into two equal lots,
sowing one lot in one direction
and the second lot at right angles
to the first with a turf-type disk
seeder or spreader. For more
information on seed types or seed
mixtures, ask for Extension Circu
lar 391 or 395.
