sodding yard, ok to checker?
SJE wrote: I have a new house that has no landscaping in the back. I want to sod St Augustine, but due to the size (probably 4000 sq ft or so) the cost concerns me. Would it be okay to checker squares (the full rectangular piece that comes in the pallets, not plug size) of sod? I was thinking of just laying it down so the corners meet, maybe some overlap, so I would need 40-50% less sod. Would this work? I don't mind if it takes some time to establish, I just don't want the sod to die and have to start over again. Would there be problems with the grass not being level? The ground is soft clay/sand, properly graded. Why not use seed? I would, but I live in Houston...only grass used near me is St Augustine. I've considered seeding Bermuda, but figured I could make some enemies with my neighbors if it invades their St Aug lawns. |
