Seeding and Sodding the Outfield
When planning a seeding or sodding project on any of your grass outfield areas, you should take a soil sample 14 days before starting your project. Your local Advanced Turf Solutions sales rep can complete this through Soil Solver. Testing the soil to know what it’s capable of is no different than us, as humans, getting bloodwork drawn. Apply any amendments that the soil test results recommend before starting the seeding or sodding process. Then, follow the corresponding directions below.
