WATER TURF IMMEDIATELY. The first watering is the most important!!!
- The first watering is the most important because it determines the longevity and performance of your grass.
- Water the first piece of grass put down within 30 minutes of installation (water as you install).
- For the first watering, thoroughly saturate the sod until you're barely able to walk on it.
- Water should penetrate each piece.
- When you can stick a screwdriver into the soil 4'', you've watered enough for now.
- In hot weather, water the lawn while installing. DO NOT wait until the entire lawn is installed before turning on the water.
