"Excellent experience from start to finish. The landscaper, Noe, was easy to work with, provided a clear and detailed quote, and was able to fit us into the schedule right away. The crew was careful, methodical, and professional while replacing our grass with artificial turf. The project took three days, the work was done beautifully. I am very happy with the results and highly recommend them."

"Leo's Green Gardener got in touch with me promptly, came out the very next morning after we talked, and did a fine job. They repaired my drip irrigation system, added new emitters where needed, and reaimed my sprinkler heads. The work was done fast and the charge was reasonable. Overall, I had a great experience with them."

Lawn Irrigation questions, answered by experts

The amount of time it takes for grass to germinate varies depending on the grass species. Even after germination, it’s going to take a while to see grass blades start emerging from soil. Some grasses germinate quickly and emerge after several days of growth (and healthy watering). Others may take up to three weeks to show themselves. Cool-season grasses tend to take the longest to germinate at one month.

Yes, you can overseed your lawn without aerating it, but results may vary. If you have the time, dethatching or aerating your lawn before overseeding will yield the best results. Overseeding your lawn without aerating will work, but less seed will take root. For the best possible results, aerate your lawn before overseeding it.

The time you should wait before walking on new grass depends on whether you used seed or sod. If you laid new grass seed, it's best to wait about eight weeks before stepping on it, as new grass is fragile. For sod, it typically establishes itself in the ground in about two weeks. For heavy traffic, like driving a car across a new grass driveway, you might need to wait an entire season.

Slit seeding takes about two to three hours for a medium or large lawn. Even bigger lawns or commercial properties can be seeded in about one day. From there, it will take about two weeks for the grass to start growing and another six weeks for the grass to establish stronger roots.

The best hardiness zones for St. Augustine grass are USDA growing zones 8, 9, and 10. However, with a bit of extra attention, it'll also grow well in zones 7, 11, and 12.
