 Captivating.
Innovative Sod Solution.
Alright, so it’s darker, denser, and dwarfer.
So what? You might think. Well, here’s a few
points to keep in mind why we think our
3-Ds are important to anyone buying sod.
Darker: 3-D Sod has been specially designed to yield a naturally
darker turf. Simply put, this means less fertilizing! You’ll be able to
have the same rich green lawn you expect without the use of costly
and sometimes harmful chemicals.
Denser: Aside from the aesthetic beauty of a thick lawn the new
3-D Sod’s improved density will help compete with weeds by actually
squeezing them out! Plus, 3-D Sod will green-up quick in the spring
giving you the first green lawn on the block.
Dwarfer: Our 3-D Sod
provides less vertical
growth and a lower
canopy height. It’s an
attribute with a benefit
that is terribly simple
to understand... less
mowing! Stop spending
all weekend working on
your lawn rather than
Sod Seed That Captivates.

 WATERING
Give your new lawn at least2 to 3 cm. (1 in.) of water
within 1/2 hour of installation. Water daily,or more
often, keeping turf moist until it is firmly rooted
(about 2weeks). Then less frequent and deeper watering
should begin. Weather conditions will dictate the
amount and frequency of watering. Be certain that
your new lawn has enough moisture to survive hot,
dry, or windy periods. Water areas near building
more often where reflected heat dries the turf.
CAUTION
During the first three weeks, avoid heavy or concentrated
use of your new lawn. This gives the roots
an opportunity to firmly knit with the soil, and
insures that the turf will remain smooth and level.
MAINTENANCE
Your new sod lawn increases your property value
significantly. With proper care, it will remain a great
asset, providing beauty, a clean playing surface, and
an improved environment.
Mow often, generally removing no more than
1/3 of the grass height at a mowing. Keep your
mower blade sharp. Fertilizer and chemical applications
will depend on climate, sod type, soil,
insects, weed and disease conditions. Your new
Ultra 3-D lawn will require less inputs providing
a beautiful Denser, Darker and Dwarfer turf.
ONCE
ESTABLISHED
After approximately 90 days your new sod is
finally becoming acclimated to its new home.
Your cultural practices for established turf are
now different from the ones you used during the
Grow-In period:
• Reduce your watering times and reset your irrigation
system for a maintenance type of setting.
• Begin a regularly scheduled fertility program,
keep in mind your new Ultra-3D Lawn will
require less inputs i.e. fertilizer and water to
maintain its natural beauty.
• Begin a standardized mowing pattern, only
removing 1/3 of the leaf blade per mowing, again
your new Ultra 3D Lawn will require less mowing.
