What NCSU said plus: Have sod delivered to your site and placed as close to install area as possable. Sod is perishable(sp), install ASAP. We pre wet the site to help the roots absorb water just prior to our install, Do not over water during this step-you do not want mud. After install, Roll in sod to get all air pockets out from under and to get good contact with soil. lots of water after install until roots have set, then water regularly thereafter. $1.00-$1.25 per sq ft includes prep/fert/install.


GREEN SIDE UP !!!
