Frozen Plugs

[Gadget]

I probably shouldn't be asking this for fear that the answer may drive me out hunting when I should be XC Skiing. But it's something that's been bugging me. Sigh...

If I do manage to chisel out a frozen plug, what does this do to that plug spot come spring time? We're all careful to not damage lawns in the fair weather, but you'd think yanking a cardboard-like plug up and hammering it back in would cause some damage to a dormant plant.

I've searched the forum and was surprised to see nothing relevant. Any northern lawn experts out there?

I don't Search in Frozen Ground, SO? this is Completly an "Uneducated Guess";

? ? ? ? ?I would Think, since the ground will be moist once it's thawed, and would react like all
Spring planting does, and start growing.

? ? ? ? If it's Dead ground (No Grass) it would just reform to it's original condition, as it Softens & settles.

All I know is that if your pinpointing is as bad as mine, you could cut a Barber half dollar into two peices.

i would say it would grow back ok ,,, come the thaw,, all things like that want to grow so they will,, try it and learn that way,, trial and error sometimes,,

I tried hunting frozen ground and smashed a perfect 1913 dime.Needless to say I don;t hunt frozen terrain anymore.The time can be put to use researching sites etc.Good luck Panz
