  • I just placed 1000 square feet of jamur sod. I watered like i was supposed to and everything is fime. But I am noticing that the sod came with pathes of crabgrass and I think some other weed called nut grass. I pulled out as much as i could and left a big spot of dirt where the crabgrass was. I know the lawn will heal, but is there anything else i can do. I am very upset with the quality of sod I recieved now that I know. Please help.

    Lawn Questions, Natural Weed Control

    You may want to contact the supplier of your sod and let them know their grass was contaminated.  It is possible that fertilizers they used may have 'awakened' nut grass or weeds that were otherwise dormant in their starter soil.  In the future, do not pull out the weeds or nut grass.  Treat the areas with our 20% Vinegar or Natural Weed Control.  Read the directions carefully and make sure you spray directly on the weeds and avoid any overspray onto surrounding grass because it will harm it.  You can purchase these products at any Garden-Ville location or on our website and have it shipped to you via UPS.
