Sod
Why does it fail?

Sod is a great way to get a beautiful lawn in a hurry. Ideal for suburban tracts and city spaces alike, sod is rolled out, brown side down, and just add water, and boom, you have a great lawn. So why does sod fail so much?
City dwellers in Philly say they want low maintenance. What they really want is "no maintenance." Sod and no maintenance don't go together. Weeds will grow and turf needs nutrients etc.
Overseeding with seeds is a great augmentation method but is not a panacea.
Grass takes some care and feeding and with a little focus, your can have verdant grass just like you see on the internet.
