What is Sodding?
Sodding is the process of lawn grass replacement with rolls of turf. A sod roll is a grass and the part of the soil beneath held together by its roots or another piece of thin material. The sod roll is grown on a sod farm and helps property owners to have a fully-grown lawn from the first day without going through the whole process of planting seeds and waiting for them to mature.

Sodding grass installation is a popular method of establishing a lush, green lawn quickly and effectively. It involves laying pre-grown grass, also known as turf or sod, over prepared soil. The sod typically consists of a layer of grass and soil held together by roots or a thin layer of mesh. Sodding grass installation is preferred over other methods of establishing a lawn such as seeding because it provides instant results and requires minimal maintenance.

The first step in sodding grass installation is to prepare the soil. This involves removing any debris, rocks, or weeds from the area where the lawn will be installed. The soil should be tilled to a depth of at least 6 inches to loosen it and make it easier for the roots of the sod to penetrate. It is also important to level the soil and make sure that it is not too compacted.

Once the soil is prepared, the sod can be laid. The sod should be delivered as soon as possible after harvesting to ensure that it stays healthy and fresh. The sod should be laid on the soil in a brick-like pattern to ensure that the seams do not line up. This will help to create a more even and attractive lawn. The sod should be pressed down firmly to make good contact with the soil.

After the sod has been laid, it is important to water it thoroughly. This will help to settle the sod and encourage the roots to grow into the soil. The sod should be watered daily for the first week to ensure that it stays moist. After that, the watering frequency can be reduced to once or twice a week depending on the climate and the amount of rainfall.

Why Sodding?
At Spring Man Canada, we recommend sodding to all our property owners over growing your own grass. This recommendation is made because the effects of sodding are instant. From a mud patch to a beautiful green lawn in a day, turf allows for the fast transformation of bare and exposed soil.

Advantages of Sodding
Sod is a mature plant that you cannot compare to grass seeds. For turf to be considered mature, it takes a year of nurturing, from seed to maturity. Planting seeds, on the other hand, is time-consuming and labor-intensive. The risk of your seeds being washed out after a storm and suffering total loss are high.

Sod is an instant green lush lawn. Seeds are just seeds. Placing sod in your yard has an immediate effect as it changes your landscape immediately. Seeds, however, take time to grow and mature. Although you may eventually get your seeds to grow to maturity, they do not have that instant aesthetic appeal.

To get your seeds started, you need to plant them with top-quality soils. However, with sod, you do not require quality soils as the grass is already mature. Sodding requires only watering for it to thrive, seeds need herbicides and fertilizer to mature.

Although it is your discretion to choose what to do with your lawn, at Spring Man Canada, we find sodding a no-brainer. It’s easy to maintain, keeps off the mud from the house, and helps stop washouts during severe storms.

Our sodding services are affordable, with on-site quotes done to ensure that our estimate is accurate. As we value our customer satisfaction, our trained and professional technicians will provide you with tips on the best lawn care methods including watering and fertilizer application. In case of any technical issue, do not hesitate to contact our technicians who are more than eager to help you have a lush, thick, green, and healthy lawn.

Sodding grass installation provides several benefits over other methods of establishing a lawn. One of the main benefits is that it provides an instant lawn. This is particularly important for people who are looking to improve the appearance of their property quickly. Sodding grass installation also provides a more uniform and attractive lawn compared to other methods. This is because the sod is pre-grown and has a consistent appearance.

Sodding grass installation is also less prone to erosion and weed growth compared to seeding. This is because the sod provides immediate cover for the soil and does not allow weeds to establish themselves. Sodding grass installation is also easier to maintain compared to seeding because it does not require frequent re-seeding or watering.

In conclusion, sodding grass installation is an effective and efficient method of establishing a beautiful lawn. It provides instant results and requires minimal maintenance. The key to a successful sodding grass installation is proper soil preparation, careful laying of the sod, and thorough watering. With the right approach, a sodded lawn can provide years of enjoyment and add value to a property.

What type of grass we use and install for our clients:

Kentucky Bluegrass

Kentucky bluegrass is what’s known as a perennial, cool-season lawn grass. This means it comes back year after year and grows most vigorously during the cool seasons of fall and spring. Compared to tall fescue grass, traditionally Kentucky bluegrass varieties have relatively shallow roots, which typically lead to lower tolerances for heat and drought. KBG has the greatest cold hardiness of all the common cool – season lawn grasses. Part of the charm of a healthy Kentucky bluegrass lawn is its rich emerald to blue green colour. Add to that its medium to fine texture, and a KBG lawn is both beautiful to look at and comfortable for bare feet.

Mowing Wing

Mowing wing the most important part of the mowing is never remove more than one-third of the plant. doing all of this causes the slow root growth and loss of colour of the sod. When grass is mowed often and at its proper height, it’s important which direction you mow your lawn. if you mow the same direction causes the blades to lean, then makes the clean cut a better cut. you have to sharpen your blade once a month because when you have a dull blade will cause tearing of the grass which makes the grass much harder to mow your lawn and looses colour.

Watering Your Grass

Morning is the best time to water grass .and avoid watering frequent short term watering in the night. And watering the grass in afternoon wastes water through evaporation and the heat because the sun keeps hitting the grass.

Fertilizing

fertilize your lawn once a month using a 21-7-7 or similar ratio. If doesn’t rain you can skip an application on the fertilizer. the most important fertilizer application is the one in the early spring. Kentucky bluegrass is very active with its growth period during this time. Fertilizing in early spring gives your lawn the full benefits of the nutrients during the entire time it is growing.
