Dormant, But Not Deserted: Winter Watering for New Sod
Q: In August, I had new emerald zoysia sod installed. I was told that I do not need to water my grass during the dormant period in winter. Is that correct considering I have new sod installed?
A: When grass is brown and dormant, you only need to water enough to keep the soil slightly moist. This will give the roots of your new sod enough water to grow whenever they’re able. Usually it rains enough in winter to keep the soil appropriately moist.
