New sod for a back yard — Carrington, Calgary: common questions
When does new sod need its first watering?
The same day it goes down. New sod has almost no roots yet, so it dries out fast; it needs a deep soak right away and steady watering for the first couple of weeks. The new sod watering guide has the schedule we leave with our sod customers.
