Quick question about sand & plants

This may be a really stupid question, but how do you stir the sand if you have plants in the tank. Specifically if you are planning to have a "lawn" area covered in some type of grass-like plant? That is what I was planning on doing with my new 29 gal, and I just never thought of it. Do the roots keep anarobic pockets from forming?? Thanks.

You could have an area of gravel where you want a carpet of greenery and sand elsewhere maybe, u'll not see the gravel much anyway. I can't remember where now but there's a pic of a really cool planted tank on this site where they've covered the bottom I'd ask their advice :eek:) I'll try to find where and let you know.
