Planting Steps

Prepare Holes

Mow existing lawn close to the ground and water thoroughly. Dig the holes with 12 – 18” on center so pods are evenly spaced from each other. Try our Power Planter for easy and fast planting!

SodPod Fertilizer Grass

Fertilize

Apply 1 tsp. of quality release fertilizer in each hole. Or you can skip the measuring and purchase NutriPod Grass Plug Nutrition, designed for grass plugs!

Post Pod Care

Thoroughly watering EVERY DAY is the key to plugging success! Keep soil moist at least 6″ to 8″ deep. Once pods are rooted (10-20 days), new runners should appear. Decrease watering to twice per week.
