Apgar Turf Farm, Inc.

Hi Doris yes we do install sod. Give us a call at 302-653-9389 and we can answer any questions that you have!

Normally we ask customers to wait 10 days to 2 weeks before they ever mow their turf. If the turf has grown 3 to 3 ½ inches before this timeline, mowing can take place.

No. Since turf is a perishable item, it needs to be installed as soon as it can be. This is especially true during warmer months, since turf that stays rolled up in warm weather can become discolored and start to brown.

Yes. Thankfully new sprinkler systems have made it easier for people to not over water their lawns. If you have over watered your turf you will notice slimy looking turf, brown colored areas, and sometimes mildew on the blades of grass.

Unfortunately, no turf out there will do well when grown in an area that is shaded for a long period of time. Our turf requires 4 hours or more of sunlight to grow properly. Keep in mind that turf that is in a shaded area for parts of the day will require less water.

Turf that has just been installed needs an inch of water every day during the summer months. If your area is experiencing natural rainfall, you will need to adjust the water you put on your turf accordingly. Once the turf has rooted into the soil (which happens after 10-14 days), the watering during warm months can be reduced to an inch of water every other day.

Hey Tammy, thanks for thinking of us! Please give us a call at 302-653-9389 so we can get more details to give you an accurate quote.
