Answer 1

TINA SMITH, ELLEN WEEKS, BOB CHILDS. Really you have the best at your finger tips!!! NOT Yahoo Answerer's, UMass is the best! and I am 53 I still believe it !!!!!!!!!!!!!
I live in Tewksbury, work for a Huge garden center chain in Winchester and 8 other locations, believe me when I say UMass is the best, and I wish I lived closer to Amherst, I live 2 hours away, but the trip is always worth it!

Answer 2

Au contraire -it may be too early!

Fall is the best time to plant grass, which in your area should mean mid-September. Why? Because there's plenty of dew in the morning, and, as the leaves fall and the rain starts -your grass gets plenty of water and sun, with no heat stress.

To answer your question -you are by no means too late.

Answer 3

No, go ahead. The trick is do you have enough water to keep it moist for the rest of the season? It will be a little weak going into winter, but unless you are buried in snow for 4 months or get no moisture, the lawn will probably pull through. Even a light green fuzz is better than mud.
