Well whodathunk it? I didn't realize there were different grades of screened loam. It's already dug and sitting at their place of business; I'm thinking this is more of a caveat emptor situation but I guess more calls and price checks will verify that. Thanks for the info, maybe I'll sound more loam proficient as I make my calls.
We're rototilling and seeding an area to extend the lawn farther back towards the wooded 'back 40' of our property, so it will be for grass.
Oh, and sorry I originally posted this in the wrong place. My newbie is showing.
