Here’s How To Have A Rich Green Lawn This Fall, 
Winter And Next Spring 
We have had so many requests for information on the sowing of lawns to winter grass aiter 
Bermuda browns in early fall that we have prepared the following outline which is based on our 
observations and experience: 


1. The lawn should be mowed and cut close. 
2. Now the lawn should be raked thoroughly with a sharp toothed 
rake, removing all dead grass and leaves. 
3. Then apply 4 pounds of Vigoro, the COMPLETE plant food per 
100 square feet and rake it off the grass blades into the soil. This 
will help the winter grass to make a quick and vigorous growth. 
Proper feeding with a complete balanced plant food is one of the 
most important factors in having a beautiful lawn because winter 
grasses are heavy feeders. Growing under adverse conditions as 
they do they need special care and feeding. 

4. Now you are ready to seed your winter lawn. Use 10 pounds of good winter grass seed per 
1000 square feet, scattering it evenly by hand or with the Vigoro spreader. Rake the seed 
in thoroughly to get as much of it through the matted Bermuda into the ground as possible. 
Better still, top dress with leaf mold, peat moss, or sand. 2: 
5. Sprinkle the lawn and continue to sprinkle frequentiy until the seed germinates and makes a 
good growth. 
This simple and inexpensive program will give you a beautiful green lawn within a very short 
time that will be the envy of the neighborhood throughout fall, winter and spring.
