 rake very lightly after which roll Under favorable con- 



ditions the grass should germinate in about 10 to 15 days. 

 Do not sprinkle a new lawn with water for the first three 

 weeks, unless the seeding is followed by very hot, dry ( 

 weather, but after this time it should be watered as required.
