Sod Home : Sod & Lawn Care Tips & FAQs
- Once Sod has been installed water it at least twice daily with about 1/4 inch of water per application until Sod is well rooted (usually about 2 to 3 weeks).
- When sod is well rooted it can survive on as little as 1/2 to 1 inch of water every 3 to 6 days.
- Make sure to avoid frequent shallow watering, this will encourage weed growth.
- Mow sod regularly leaving a 2 to 4 inch height.If cut too short weeds can easily take over.
- During rainy season turn off irrigation.
- Watering should be reduced to 1 or 2 times per week during cold weather.
Fertilizer FAQs
- We recommend that if you decide to fertilize your own lawn it should be applied after your first mowing about 2 or 3 weeks after installation.
- We recommend Lesco products.
- First fertilization use 8-10-10 then switch to 16-04-08
