Measuring and spacing:

Most yards or areas should be planted on 12 inch centers.  To figure out how many plants you need.  Simply take the amount of square footage and multiply it by 1.00.  to increase your plant density (for areas that may erode or be on a slope) increase your plant density and multiply 1.78 or 4.00 depending how extreme the situation.

Watering:

Water your new plugs directly after planting, soaking the plug thoroughly with a general purpose 15-30-15 fertilizer.  Keep the area wet for the first two weeks, then slowly reduce watering (but keep the ground moist.)  After the fourth week, soak the area once or twice per week until the plugs have compley covered the area.  This additional watering will keep the plugs actively growing and spreading as quickly as possible.

After this period, additional watering will depend on your local needs.

Fertilization:

After installation use a general purpose lawn or sod fertilizer.

Weed control:

Immediately after planting, apply a fertilizer with pre-emergent weed control.  Make sure to follow labeled instructions.  Contact your local garden center or extension agent for additional and local advice.

Mowing:

Mowing is important during the establishment period to encourage the grass to spread and to control weed growth.  mow the area at 1.5 to 3 inche as frequently as necessary.

After established, mow to the look you desire.
