You don't need topsoil to grow a lawn. Most professional sports venues
have zero topsoil, the sod grows on a blend that is at least 90% sand.
Oriole Park at Camden Yards had to completely redo their field last year
because the organic matter had built up on its own from 1% to 17% in
eleven years.

Topsoil does, however, generally make it easier for the average
homeowner to grow grass because it holds moisture longer than sand, but
topsoil is not a requirement.

Those sport venues run irrigation to most of their turf. Topsoil is
a wonderful thing, if you can find -real- topsoil.

My point is, plan on lots of water, if you're growing it in sub soil.
