Before you begin the 3-step process, you should determine what type of grass you have and which Sta-Green products will work best for your lawn. There are many types of grass, but they all basically fall into two categories: 1. Cool season grasses are grass types that remain green all year round. The most common types of cool season grasses are tall fescue, bluegrass, ryegrass and creeping red fescue. They can be grown individually or as mixes. 2. Warm season grasses are grass types that go brown, or dormant in the winter. The most common types of warm season grasses are Bermuda, St. Augustine, centipede, zoysia and bahia. Warm season grasses are not commonly mixed together. Knowing what type of grass you have in your lawn will make it easy to choose the correct Sta-Green products that will make it easy to keep your lawn lush, green and weed free. You should also know the size of your lawn to ensure you have the right amount of fertilizer for good coverage. Sta-Green products come in two bag sizes to cover either 5000 sq. ft. or 15000 sq. ft.
