Looking ahead at the extended forcast, it looks like it is safe to go ahead and fertilize. Remember to stay away for the big box store fertilizer that seems to be so popular. Fertilizers like Scotts turf builder, Bonus S and weed and feed will make your yard look great for the first year, but continued use will lead to issues. Look for a more mild fertilizer like 15-0-15 at your local lawn and garden store. Make sure to follow the directions for application.
If you recently installed turfgrass, or moved into a new home over the last few months, now is the time to keep a closer eye on your watering. Check under the sod everyday. If there is subatantial moisture, there is no need to water. But, if you are starting to see small white roots and/or the soil is getting dry, you'l need to go ahead and start a strict watering schedule. That could mean everyday, or every other day depending on your soil and the temperature. This is very importatnt! I tell customers, how you treat the turf the first few weeks, will determine how it looks the next couple of years.
Kellum Sod Farm works with several landscapers that can handle your installation needs or we may be able to handle basic installations in house. Please call for details.
