If your new sod lawn is home to a family of swans and the occasional bottlenose dolphin, you’re watering too much.
You’re eager to make sure your new sod gets enough water, and that’s a good thing.
The cool thing about being a grownup is the only reason you really need to replace your old lawn with new sod is that you feel like it.
Ha! So there!
If your yard is in full sun, you’ve hit the lawn lottery.
It’s easy to be in a hurry when it comes to new sod.
You can’t wait to walk on it barefoot and invite your friends over for mango margaritas to show it off.
Bad sod installation. Man, those are three sad words.
Getting new sod is supposed to be exciting. A new lawn! Instantly!
But as magical as it sounds, sod installation isn’t magic. It’s a skill. It’s hard work. It has to be done just right.
If you or your sod installer messed up, you might end up with poorly installed sod.
Here are some signs of bad sod installation:
If you install your sod upside down, that’s a mistake.
If you invite the neighborhood soccer team over for practice the day after your sod goes in, that’s also a mistake.
Once your new sod is installed, it’s easy to panic if things don’t seem quite right.
If you sigh at the smell of freshly mown grass, love the sound of sprinklers chugging away, and delight at finding an elusive four-leaf clover in a fresh spring lawn, artificial turf isn’t for you.
If you’re rolling your eyes right now and thinking, “Dorks!” artificial turf might be exactly for you.
But there are other ways to tell if you should go with natural grass or artificial turf.
What are the differences between artificial grass and natural grass?
If you wanted a brown lawn, you would have installed dirt, right?
So when you see brown spots in your new sod, you start to panic.
New sod and sprinkler installation go hand in hand, right?
New sod needs lots of water. It makes perfect sense.
But do you install sprinklers or sod first?
Let’s take a look.
