Which is better: seeding or sod<\/a>? It’s a question many homeowners have when they want to ensure their lawn is lush and healthy. The best way to answer the question is to consider your yard’s current factors and conditions. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to Decide If Your Lawn Needs Seeding or Sod<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Lawn care experts agree that assessing the current state of your yard determines whether seeding or sod is appropriate. First, you’ll need to compare the sections of weeds and dead grass to healthy grass. For example, if the lawn contains more than 40-50% dead grass or weeds, your best option is to start your yard over with new sod.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the other hand, if 50% or more of your lawn grass is healthy, performing manual weed control and planting grass seed should be sufficient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another factor to consider is the grass you are growing on your property. There are more grass varieties for seeding available than sodding. So if you have a specific grass variety you prefer, you’ll need to find out if it’s available in sod or if you will need to stick with seeding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sod Installation Is Best Left to the Pros<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

While you may take a DIY approach to seeding, sod installation is more complicated. It has a brief 24-hour period for transplanting and requires proper installation. Reach out to trusted professionals to set your lawn up for success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
