@iTweetTurf Littles on the route 100 in south Coventry (Pottstown). It’s 1000 yards from my front door.

@TZurybida It’s very dry. I’m seeing more winter time sod/establish struggles than I ever have.

@AdamMoeller I’ve gotten a ton of calls about this. I agree with your thoughts. The other good thing is sun light hours for dormancy break (winter solstice) are a lot shorter than February. I’ve advised people to pull a few plugs next week when it thaws just to gauge.
