          Water is life, even for your garden.

          But the when, how and how much of water is important. Too little and your sod will die; too much and it will rot or drown. And while most people are afraid they are not watering their lawns enough, more grass dies as a result of too much water.

          Watering properly immediately after you install your grass will ensure it gets established properly in the soil.

          And it impacts how well your garden will flourish. Here are some of the things you should pay attention to as you water your fresh sod.

          When to Begin Watering

          Water your new sod within half an hour after laying it in your garden.

          7. Apply enough water to ensure the soil beneath the turf is sufficiently wet. Gardening experts recommend you ensure at least three inches below the surface is wet. To test this, push a sharp object such as a screwdriver through the turf, and it should come out moist along the first three or four inches.
