How to use SOD

Nov 5

It's time for you to start again if your lawn is in serious danger or is full of weeds. There are two options: reseed the grass or lay sod. This will take longer to achieve the green lawn you desire.

What's sod?

You can find a farm that will grow your sod right away or a Phoenix landscaper Creative Greenz Landscaping can help you plant a sod plant in the lawn. If you don't have the right knowledge, sod laying can be time-consuming and tedious. Competent people who have a thorough knowledge of the process can lay sod in less than 24 hours after harvesting. It should be viable as long as it has not been damaged by any other means, such as herbicide. As long as the plant has not been damaged in any other way, such as by herbicide, there should be no problems with its survival.

How do you install sod?

Remove the Old Grass

Before you lay the sod, remove any soil and grass. A minimum of one inch of soil is necessary for your yard to thrive. The sod cutter consists of two rectangular frames that have sharp blades at one end. At the cutting point, the sod cutter will cut through roots and leave behind dirt. This is how rolls are delivered to farmhouses.

Prepare for the Soil

A successful sod installation requires careful preparation. To level out the soil and to break down large pieces of dirt, you can use a garden rake (also called a bow-rake). This will make it easier for you to plant new roots. To help roots bond with their native plants quickly, add layers of lawn soil to the top. They should not be placed over existing grasses as this could cause their death.

Use the sod

Before you lay sod, make sure to water the soil first with a hose. Next, take out any footprints left behind by the previous layer. It can be rolled along the longest edge, without concrete or landscaping. You can remove the next piece from any footprints. Roll another roll on the pieces until you have brick-wall patterns.

Trim Your Edges

You are almost done with the lying sod rolls. It is possible that you will find some edges uneven. Don't worry! Don't worry! Don't worry! You can simply fold the grass back and trim it with sharp scissors. Smoothen all spaces between the soil's surface and the grassy edges.

Don't forget to drink water

For two to six weeks, water the newly laid sod at least twice daily. Next, make sure to check the soil surrounding the grass for any mud.
