A lipase test measures the level of a protein called lipase in your blood. Lipase helps your body absorb fats. Itâs released by the pancreas, a long, flat gland between your stomach and spine. When your pancreas is inflamed or injured, it releases more lipase than usual. Your doctor may want to find out the level of this protein in your blood to find how your pancreas is doing.
Usually planted in the early fall, cool-season grass seeds prefer daytime temperatures ranging from 60 to 75 F. With this temperature range, the soil itself is usually between 50 and 65 F -- the right environment for germination.
That makes spring and early summer as the best time to plant warm season grass seed. Following germination make sure the new plants have adequate water during the remainder of the growing season. Most warm season grasses are typically planted with live plants instead of seed.
