Lawn Care Timing Guide

Sources & citations

Every timing entry on the site cites a university extension source (or, where we couldn't find a direct citation for the exact grass-zone combination, names the physiology rule we used to interpolate). Below, the source list is grouped by grass and then by task. Each link points to the extension publication's landing page; the per-page entries link to the specific reference.

Kentucky Bluegrass

Tall Fescue

Fine Fescue

Perennial Ryegrass

Bermuda Grass

Zoysia

St. Augustine

Centipede

Bahia

Buffalo Grass

On “inferred” entries

A handful of grass-zone-task combinations don't have a direct extension publication: usually because the grass species is marginal in that zone, or the task is uncommon (e.g. winter rye overseed in zone 6). For those entries, the page surfaces an amber caveat band noting the source is a grass-physiology rule, not a direct citation. Treat those windows with extra skepticism.
