Although not the optimum time of the year to sow a lawn I did mine
yesterday. The size of the lawn is quite small 24 ft x 12 ft.

Advice from several people with varying degrees of gardening experience has
mentioned that the seed should be ok if the average temperature is above 5 -
6 degree C. As the days are getting noticably colder I was wondering if it
would be a good idea to lay sheets of polythene (sp?) on the lawn to keep
some heat in to aid the sowing process.

Grateful for any advice.
