2. First mowing can be about one to two weeks after installation, set 4’’ for mower`s cutting height, and remove grass clips on the lawn.
3. After 4-6 weeks, apply lawn fertilizer, a formula like 10-10-10 or 2-1-1 over the sod so that 1 pound of nitrogen is applied per 1,000 square feet of sod and lightly water it in.
