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.

Long-Term Sod Care

Sod installation is a long-term investment, and proper care is essential for success. After installation, The Grounds Guys of Stamford can help you maintain your lawn with professional lawn care services. We’re here to ensure your new sod grows strong and stays beautiful for years to come.
