Book Description

Excerpt from Methods of Reestablishing Buffalo Grass on Cultivated Land in the Great Plains Buffalo grass may be propagated by setting out the runners or stolons in moist soil, but this method is not successful on strictly dry land. The most practical method where watering is not possible is to set small pieces Of sod in well-prepared soil at intervals Of 3 to feet. Solid spacing of sods is practical only for very small areas, such as lawns, where the chief consideration is immediate results. An acre Of cultivated land when set out with 4-inch cubes spaced 3 feet apart requires about 2 square rods of sod or a strip 12 inches wide and 538 feet long.
