themselves. With the simpler service, Fong offers tips for preparation.
“If you want to do your own installation, follow these steps carefully be- fore pickup or delivery, and your lawn should thrive for years,” he says.
First, remove the old lawn and all weeds, organically or with herbicides. This critical step will take two to four weeks, Fong says.
“You don’t want weeds and old grasses to come through the new sod. Take
your time! Protect your in- vestment.”
Second, rake and remove
roots and plant material. Loosen and till the soil, then rake till surface is level.
In the third step — soil amendment — spread about an inch of good compost across the area. Till it with existing soil to avoid soil layering and create a healthy surface loaded with nutri- ents. Then, use drum rollers
to level the surface.
“Now it’s time to install,”
says Fong. “Plant the sod over your compost base in a checkerboard pattern, push- ing the seams together. Use the drum roller to help your new sod make contact with the compost beneath it.”
For best results, water your new lawn two or three times a day for the next three weeks.
With Hawaiian Turfgrass, it’s easier and quicker than ever to purchase a beautiful new lawn.
