All grass starts from a seed. But with sod, the difficult task of planting the seeds and nurturing them until they grow is done for you.<\/p>\n
Sod is professionally cultivated. The seeds are planted on a farm and the grass is harvested when it is mature, healthy and free of weeds. The grass is then cut into squares or rolls and sold.<\/p>\n
Sod is expensive<\/strong> – it costs about 20 times more than growing your own grass from seeds.<\/p>\n Seeding a lawn is a time-consuming process. But the results are rewarding. With a bit of hard work and a little luck, you\u2019ll have a plush, green lawn in a matter of one to two months.<\/p>\n There are many different varieties of grass, and thus, many different types of seeds. It is important to do some research before you buy to find out which type of grass performs best in your climate.<\/p>\n Seeding a lawn is relatively inexpensive. Grass seed usually costs about 1 cent per square foot. For a 10,000-square-foot lawn, that works out to a total cost of $100.<\/p>\n If you don\u2019t already have one, you\u2019ll need to purchase a spreader. Most residential spreaders sell for just $100 to $200.<\/p>\n\n
