Caring for Your New Sod

Fresh sod requires special care during the first few weeks to establish strong roots. Follow these tips to ensure your new sod lawn thrives:

First Week

• Watering: Water the sod 3–4 times a day for 5–10 minutes each time, but avoid letting it dry out.
• Evening Watering: Refrain from watering in the evening to prevent fungal growth.
• Foot Traffic: Keep off the lawn for at least two weeks to avoid damaging the delicate new sod.

Second Week

• Extended Watering: Water the lawn for 30 minutes daily. If the weather is hot, water twice a day to prevent drying.

Third Week and Beyond

• First Mow: After three weeks, you can mow the lawn, but keep the mower blades high. Avoid cutting more than 1/3 of the grass height.
• Fertilization: Apply fertilizer six weeks after installation to support ongoing growth and health.
