Before we delve into the intricacies of sod installation, let's explore why sod might be the ideal solution for your lawn:
- Instant Gratification: Unlike seeding, sodding provides instant results, giving you a beautiful lawn in a fraction of the time.
- Erosion Control: Sod acts as a natural erosion barrier, preventing soil erosion and promoting a stable landscape.
- Weed Control: Professionally installed sod minimizes weed growth, providing a dense, uniform lawn that inhibits weed penetration.
- Enhanced Property Value: A well-maintained lawn significantly boosts your property's curb appeal and resale value.
Fresh Sod Care
Fresh sod requires a different maintenance routine than a regular lawn does. Avoid the temptation to put perfect mow lines or have a picnic on your new lawn. Follow these sod care tips to ensure your new sod takes root:
First Week
- Avoid overwatering, but never allow the sod to dry out. Water the sod three to four times a day for five to ten minutes.
- Avoid watering the sod in the evening.
- Avoid foot traffic on your new lawn for at least two weeks.
Second Week
Third Week and Beyond
- After three weeks, you can mow the lawn. Keep the mower deck high, and never mow more than 1/3 the length of the grass blades.
- Fertilize your new sod six weeks after installation.
Sod installation is an investment, and failure often comes from improper care and maintenance. Once the sod is installed, The Grounds Guys can provide lawn maintenance services to ensure the sod becomes established and looks great for years to come.
