I need to sod my back yard with St. Augustine. I wonder if this is
too early to set out sod? I know St. Augustine is hardy but maybe not
when it has not established itself? Thanks for any shared knowledge.

Our St. Augustine was installed in December, in the year we bought the house,
new. It is a fine time to lay it, roll it out and keep it watered if it doesn't
rain. I mean really water it in. It is dormant now so it will not suffer if we
have a late frost or other inclement weather.
