How to grow grass on clay soil

Where are you located? What state? Here in Ohio we have a lot of clay soil and the grass grows great once it's started. Just "scratch" the top of the soil, broadcast your grass seed, and water every day until the seed sprouts. Some people like to put straw on top of the seed to keep the birds away.

Hear are some good reads and approaches on growing grass in clay soils.

Hi, carcare26!

Is there any grass at all currently growing in the clay soil, please? It would be helpful to know that.

Thanks!
