Nurturing New Roots: Essential Care Tips for Fresh Sod
Caring for freshly installed sod requires special attention to ensure it takes root and thrives. Here are essential tips to guide you through the crucial initial weeks:
First Week:
- Moderate Watering - Avoid excessive watering while ensuring the sod remains consistently moist. Water three to four times daily for short intervals of five to ten minutes each time.
- Timing - Refrain from watering in the evening to prevent prolonged moisture on the sod, which can promote disease.
- Foot Traffic - Minimize foot traffic on the new sod for at least two weeks to allow the roots to establish without disturbance.
Second Week:
- Increased Watering - Gradually adjust watering frequency to once a day, with longer watering sessions lasting 30 minutes each. Increase to twice a day if necessary to maintain optimal moisture levels.
Third Week and Beyond:
- Mowing - Wait until the third week before mowing the new sod. Set the mower deck to a high setting and never remove more than one-third of the grass blade length in a single mowing session.
- Fertilization - Apply fertilizer approximately six weeks after sod installation to provide essential nutrients for continued growth and health.
Remember, proper care and maintenance are crucial for the success of your sod investment. At The Grounds Guys of Pickens County, we offer exceptional lawn maintenance services to ensure your sod becomes established and maintains its beauty for years to come.
