average lawns at least every seven days and preferably at intervals of three to five days and, for other sod lawns, mow at least once a week.The following quick-growing kinds are "nurse" grasses for more permanent types and the rye grasses, for temporary winter lawns in the South and, occasionally, temporary summer lawns in the North. When added to seed mixtures they help to prevent erosion before the slower growing permanent grasses are big enough to do so and they tend to crowd out weeds.
