80s would have me concerned. We've been mostly in the upper-50s, with a couple of gorgeous, mid-70s days (like today). Warmer than a typical March to be sure, but not completely off the charts. Weird weather is sort of the norm for New England, anyway. > Grab 3-4 bags of Scotts LawnSoil, lay it down evenly. Grab a bag of coated Scotts > Sun/Shade Grass Mix.
