Because the roots of the new sod need constant moisture, they require more water than a lawn that is established. These are some tips to keep in mind.
After installing your sod, water it to soak the soil the first week.
It depends on the weather and your area, watering should be done for approximately 5-15 minutes 2-3 times per day.
You can then reduce it to once per day and soak the top quarter-inch of the soil.
After three weeks, it can be watered every other day. You can water it every other day for one month.
To ensure maximum moisture absorption, water your new sod only in the morning and evening, and not in the afternoon.
Your new sod may not require fertilization. You may want to wait up to a month before fertilizing your lawn. This will allow roots to establish in the soil.
To avoid cutting too close to the root, wait at least five to seven weeks after installation. To promote root growth, keep your yard moist. Make sure your mower blades are sharp. Avoid cutting too short or unevenly.
To ensure proper growth, avoid walking on the new sod for at least 1-2 weeks. Keep traffic to a minimum for one month.
The ground can become muddy if it is overwatered in the days before the new sod installation. Keep your lawn moist by watering it three times a day for approximately 10 to 15 minutes.
What Is The Average Time It Takes For New Sod To Root?
The roots of new sod usually take between 10 and 15 days after application. This is the best time of the year to mow your lawn. It is important to not run or walk on the lawn, as roots will develop properly.
Which Time Is Best To Water New Sod During The Day?
It is better to water your lawn in the mornings or the evenings, rather than in the afternoon. Because hot temperatures can cause water to evaporate quickly and prevent soil from retaining vital nutrients, this is a good idea. To ensure that your plants grow properly, you might consider a timed sprinkler.
Do I Need To Fertilize New Sod?
To maintain healthy roots and keep your yard lush and green, it is important to remember that quality fertilizer is required for new lawns. Because they penetrate the soil's surface and condition it below the surface, liquid fertilizers produce the best results for new sod.
