Even in mid-winter, many of us dream of spring and hopes for
a luxuriant lawn. If you are heading to start on the gorgeous grass of your
fantasies, why not Sod installation in
Edmonton instead of growing from seed? We at Envision Landscaping make
the look of your lawn with the installation of sod. Here sharing some
preparation tips to make the installation success.
1. Select the right
season for the sod installation. If you live in the southerly state, you can
install the sod in late winter. Whereas, springs are the best times as the
weather is mild this time. Also, the heat of summers will be harsh for this
installation.
2. Let all the
members know that they will not be able to walk on the sodded area and also
don’t allow your pets on your lawn for like three weeks.
3. Setting a lawn
sprinkler system is a must. An automatic programmable timer is a wise
investment. Water the soil twice a day before you plan to have a new sod
installation.
4. The next thing
is to do is test soil. The test report will indicate the amendments which are
required to get that mildly acidic soil, nutrient-rich that sod desires. Normally lime is suggested to counteract a
high acid content, gypsum, and sulfur for overly alkaline soil.
5. If the dirt is
compacted highly, you need to aerate it. Till the earth to a depth of 2 inches.
6. Measure the plot
dimensions where turf is to be installed so you will know how many squares or
rolls to avoid overbuying.
7. Get rid of any
tree clods, large stones, tree stumps and roots and other debris. Then rake
this site level and grade it to check complete drainage.
8. Prepare the area
for your lawn to get the installation done. Use an herbicide followed by a sod
cutter to eliminate any scraggly grass on site.
