Added top soil and seed where lawn was disturbed., I didn't expect that. Lawn should look awesome by end of month. Thank you Gary and your crew."

"Had True Green for a few years. First year or so they were great. Did what they said they would do.  Turned the lawn around.  However had issues with their guarantees.  That was the whole reason why I went with them.  When I ran into an issue last summer with their grub warranty I received lip service.  No one showed up to re mediate even though the regular guy from True green and I had called several times with no response.  This year started up.  I called and canceled.  Apparently they took notice.  Some guy said he was going to stop by and take a look.  Never did, but did send someone with grass seed.   Then they continued on as if I had not stopped.  I called when they said that they were coming to do some more work and said I had canceled.  That did not stop them.  They showed up anyway and did the work.  After complaining they did not charge me which was good.  A week or two later a guy spoke with me.  He seemed very sincere to keep my business, but it was a bit too late.  Why didn't True Green take action last fall when I called up a half dozen times?  Good things -  Their product is pretty good, but they ignored the soil testing results that I had.  Bad Things -  When there are issues they are not exactly smooth at straightening them out quickly.   Pricing differs from town to town."

Lawn Irrigation questions, answered by experts

Choosing between sod and seed depends on your budget, timeline, and maintenance preferences.

Sod:

  • Pros: Provides an instant, lush lawn and immediate curb appeal. It's more resistant to weeds and erosion, can be installed any time during the growing season, and offers a consistent appearance.

  • Cons: Has a higher upfront cost, typically $0.90 to $1.80 more per square foot than seed. It offers fewer grass varieties and must be installed immediately upon delivery.

Seed:

  • Pros: Less expensive upfront, making it a budget-friendly option. It offers a wider variety of grass types and is easier for a DIY installation.

  • Cons: Takes much longer to establish, potentially up to two years for a full lawn. It requires more maintenance, including regular weed control, and is more difficult to cultivate.

Ultimately, if you want a beautiful lawn quickly and have a larger budget, sod is an excellent choice. If you are patient, want to save money, and prefer a wider selection of grass types, seeding may be the better option.

Soaking grass seeds in water before seeding is called pre-germinating. It’s not necessary but can be very helpful in some cases. Some grasses like are very slow to germinate, and basic seeding on the ground is unlikely to be effective—that’s especially true of cool season grasses like Kentucky bluegrass, rye grasses, and Bermuda grass. Soaking these seeds in a bag or bin of water for one to four days beforehand can give the grass the start it needs to survive.

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.

Unfortunately, garages are one of the worst places to store grass seeds, despite their proximity to yards. Garages are hot and humid, two environmental traits that are detrimental to grass seeds. Grass seed has the best chance of survival in a dry space with temperatures ranging from 30 to 60 degrees Fahrenheit. 

With that in mind, the best place to store seeds is in a sealed container in the refrigerator or in the coolest part of your home. Also, limit your seeds’ access to sunlight for the best germination results down the line. 

Whether you’re putting down fresh seed or reseeding, there are a few things to keep in mind when seeding your lawn. Be sure to choose the correct seed for your climate, seed at the right time of year, and water two to three times a day for the first week. Generally, Dudley recommends seeding in spring and fall as it is usually cooler and rainier.
