Fall can be the perfect time to lay new sod in your yard! The temps are cooling off, but it's still warm enough for sod to take root. It's a big job for one person, so you'll definitely need help, depending on the size of your yard. It can also be more expensive than simply re-seeding your lawn. But with a help, and a weekend, you can get it done! Here's how I did a section of my yard!
You'll need these materials, which I bought from Home Depot (affiliate links):

It's vest and flannel weather up there already? Dang, I am jealous

@ThereIsKnowSpoon 9 месяцев назад

That's some fancy sod.

@ThriftDiving 8 месяцев назад

It was so thick and lush! I would really love to do my entire yard. But I think I would at least need a landscape company to come and haul the materials. It would be soooo much work!

Nice work, queen 💪🏽

My goodness Serena, how do you do it? 🤔 Honesty, I admire you! 👍

@Frosting1000 9 месяцев назад

I had no idea what sod was and I didn’t know you could just lay panels of grass like that 😳 I was like oh that’s how they get it to look so even, I thought they just threw seeds on it

Excellent content TD! I use seed and top soil especially when it is hot and humid. I planted seed from Lowes, thoroughly watered it in the mornings and in less than a week the grass sprouted and by the end of the month it blended with the other grass. Oh, I did not mow that area until it was six inches in height. I credit the rapid growth to the topsoil I mixed into the existing soil. Amazing!

What kind of topsoil did you use

@dmann1209 Месяц назад

@@EDOG3408 The less expensive brand from Lowes. The soil is a dark color and by watering it every morning during high humidity creates sort of a greenhouse effect. I used Pennington fertilizer encased seed and kept the depth at about an inch.
