Measure Area for Bahia Sod using measuring wheel or measuring tape. Calculate Square Footage

How to Measure the Area for your New Bahia Grass

To measure your yard for Bahia sod, you will need to determine the length and  width of the area you want to cover. You can use a measuring tape or a  measuring wheel to get the measurements. Once you have the length and  width, multiply them together to get the total square footage of the  area. This will give you an estimate of how much Bahia sod you will need to  purchase. It is also important to consider any irregular shapes or  angles in the area, as they will require additional calculations to  determine the correct amount of Bahia sod needed. It is also recommended to  add an extra 10-15% to account for any cuts or waste. 


Let's say you have a rectangular shaped yard that is 60 feet long and 40 feet wide. To determine the square footage of the area, you would multiply the length (60) by the width (40):

60 x 40 = 2,400 square feet


So in this example, you would need to purchase approximately 2,400 square feet of Bahia sod to cover the entire yard. However, it's always a good idea to add an extra 10-15% to account for any cuts or waste. so you would need to purchase around 2,640 - 2,760 square feet of Bahia sod.


It's also important to note that in case if you have any irregular shapes or angles in your yard, you should measure these areas separately and then add it to the total square footage.

Prepare the Area for your New Bahia Grass

  • Clear the area of any debris, such as rocks, sticks, or leaves.


  • Remove any existing grass or weeds using a sod cutter, hoe, or herbicide.


  • Use a rake or a leveling tool to smooth out the soil surface and remove any large clumps or bumps.


  • Grade the soil if needed, to ensure proper drainage and to create a level surface.


  • Once the area is cleared and prepared, use a lawn roller to compact the soil.


  • Water the soil thoroughly before installing the Bahia sod to ensure that it will make good contact with the soil and root properly.

Water the soil thoroughly

  • Before installing the Bahia sod, water the soil thoroughly to a depth of at least 6 inches. This will help the roots of the sod establish more effectively.


  • You can use a hose and nozzle, sprinkler, or irrigation system to water the soil. Be sure to water the soil uniformly to ensure that the entire area is hydrated.


  • It's important to water the soil to a depth of 6 inches because the roots of the new Bahia sod need to reach that depth to establish effectively.


  • After installation, water the new Bahia sod immediately and keep the soil consistently moist for the first few weeks.


  • For the first two weeks, water the new Bahia sod at least twice a day, in the morning and evening, or as often as necessary to keep the soil consistently moist.


  • After the first two weeks, reduce the frequency of watering to once a day.


  • Gradually reduce the frequency of watering over the next few weeks, until you reach a watering schedule that's appropriate for your area's climate and weather conditions.


  • Be sure to keep an eye on the new Bahia sod and water it as needed to prevent it from drying out.


Note: The watering schedule may vary depending on the location, climate, and other factors specific to your area. It is always best to check the American Landworks for information about the condition of sod farm for the best results.

Laying New Bahia Sod

  • Start by laying the first row of Bahia sod along one edge of the prepared area, making sure the edges of the Bahia sod are tight against each other.


  • Continue laying rows of sod, making sure the edges of each piece of Bahia sod are tightly butted against the edges of the previous piece.


  • As you lay each piece of Bahia sod, stagger the joints, like laying bricks in a brick wall pattern, so that the joints in one row are not lined up with the joints in the next row. This will help prevent gaps from forming between the pieces of Bahia sod.


  • Use a sharp knife or sod cutter to trim the edges of the Bahia sod as needed, to fit around curves or corners.


  • Make sure to adjust the Bahia sod as you go, to ensure that it is level and that there are no gaps between the pieces.


  • Once all the Bahia sod is laid, use a lawn roller or your feet to press the sod down firmly into the soil, to ensure good contact between the roots and the soil.


  • Water the Bahia sod immediately after installation, to ensure that the soil is moist at least 6 inches deep.


 American Landworks Professional landscapers have the experience and equipment  necessary to properly prepare the soil, lay the Bahia sod, and ensure that it  is properly hydrated and cared for after installation. 


We can also  help with any additional landscaping needs you may have.  American Landworks are experienced and  efficient, we can save you time and ensure that your new Bahia  sod is installed correctly for optimal growth and beauty. 

Installing rolls of New Bahia Grass Sod

 Installing new Bahia Grass sod by the roll is a common method for installing sod. It involves unrolling and laying large rolls of sod directly onto the prepared soil surface. We unroll the new Bahia Grass sod onto the prepared soil, making sure that the edges of the sod are tight against each other.

Rolling new Bahia Grass Sod

Rolling new Bahia Grass sod is an important step in the installation process that helps ensure good contact between the roots and the soil. This can help the roots establish more effectively and promote better growth.


  • After laying the new Bahia Grass sod, use a lawn roller or rent one from a local equipment rental company to press the sod down firmly into the soil.


  • Begin at one end of the sod and roll it in a back-and-forth motion, making sure to cover the entire area.


  • The roller should be filled with water, to add weight and help press the sod down firmly.


  • Be sure to roll the sod evenly, to ensure that there are no air pockets between the sod and the soil.


  • Once all the new Bahia Grass sod is rolled, water the area immediately to ensure that the soil is moist at least 6 inches deep.


  • Repeat the process in case of any air pockets appear

Watering is critical for the establishment of newly installed Bahia grass sod. Here are a few tips for watering new Bahia grass sod:


  • Initial watering: Water the Bahia grass sod immediately after installation and keep the soil consistently moist for the first few weeks. Water the Bahia grass sod at least twice a day, in the morning and evening, or as often as necessary to keep the soil consistently moist.


  • After the first two weeks: Reduce the frequency of watering to once a day. Gradually reduce the frequency of watering over the next few weeks, until you reach a watering schedule that's appropriate for your area's climate and weather conditions.


  • Deep watering: It's important to water the soil to a depth of 6 inches because the roots of the sod need to reach that depth to establish effectively.


  • Watering schedule: The specific watering schedule will depend on factors such as temperature, humidity, wind, and sunlight. Monitor the Bahia grass sod regularly and water as needed to prevent it from drying out.


  • Rain: If it rains, do not water the Bahia grass sod. Rainwater is adequate for the sod establishment.


  • Watering in the morning: It is best to water the sod in the morning, so that the grass has time to dry before evening.

Mowing is an important part of caring for newly installed Bahia grass sod. Here are a few tips for mowing new Bahia grass sod:


  • Timing: Wait until the sod has grown to a height of 3-4 inches before mowing. This will allow the roots to establish properly before the first mowing.


  • Mower setting: Use a sharp lawn mower set at the highest setting to avoid scalping the grass. It is important to not cut more than 1/3 of the grass blade at a time.


  • Mowing frequency: Mow regularly to keep the grass at a consistent height, usually every 5-7 days during the growing season.


  • Grass clippings: Leave the grass clippings on the lawn after mowing. They will decompose quickly and provide additional nutrients to the soil.


  • Avoid mowing when the grass is wet: Wait until the grass is dry before mowing to prevent the mower from clogging and to avoid the risk of disease.


  • Watch out for pests: Keep an eye out for pests and diseases that can be spread by mowing and address them promptly.


  • Gradually lower the mower setting: Gradually lower the mower setting over the course of the first growing season. This will help to toughen up the grass and prepare it for the next growing season.


  • Cut height: Bahia grass is a warm-season grass, the ideal cutting height is about 3-4 inches.


Note: The mowing schedule may vary depending on the location, climate, and other factors specific to your area.

Fertilizing newly installed Bahia grass sod is important to promote healthy growth and establishment. Here are a few tips for fertilizing new Bahia grass sod:


  1. Timing: Fertilize the sod after it has been installed, and then every 6-8 weeks during the growing season.
  2. Type of fertilizer: Use a slow-release fertilizer specifically formulated for Bahia grass. This will provide a steady supply of nutrients to the grass over time.
  3. Application: Apply the fertilizer evenly over the entire area, following the manufacturer's instructions for the recommended rate of application.
  4. Watering: Water the fertilizer into the soil immediately after application to ensure that it reaches the roots.
  5. Avoid over-fertilizing: Over-fertilizing can lead to lush, thick growth that can create an ideal environment for pests and diseases. Use a slow-release fertilizer and follow the instructions on the package.
  6. Consider soil test: Consider having a soil test done to determine the specific fertilizer needs of your soil and sod.
  7. Stop fertilizing before winter: Stop fertilizing at least 6-8 weeks before the first expected frost date to allow the grass to harden off for winter.
  8. Nitrogen: Bahia grass thrives on Nitrogen, a fertilizer with a high N content is recommended.


Note: The fertilizing schedule may vary depending on the location, climate, and other factors specific to your area.

 Bahia grass sod offers lush green coverage when properly tended and weeds can easily take away from its appeal. To ensure a healthy, weed-free lawn, it is important to follow effective weed control measures when the Bahia sod is newly planted.


Weeds can be controlled by applying pre-emergent herbicides throughout the year and spot treating with post-emergent herbicides as needed. Pre-emergent herbicides should be applied in early spring before Bahia grass begins to grow. These will prevent germination of many different types of weed seeds that may be present in the soil. Post-emergent herbicides are used for established weeds and should only be used after Bahia grass has been planted and started to grow.


Mowing the Bahia sod correctly is also an important part of weed control. Bahia grass should be kept at a height of 1-2 inches and mowed on a regular basis to keep weeds from establishing themselves. Mowing helps to reduce competition for resources between Bahia grass and weeds, allowing Bahia grass to thrive without being overtaken by weeds.


Finally, proper fertilization is essential for Bahia grass to remain healthy and weed free. Bahia grass should be fertilized during early spring, summer and fall with a complete fertilizer that contains nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium in balanced amounts. This will give the Bahia sod the nutrients it needs to stay strong and healthy while preventing opportunistic weeds from taking over.

By following these weed control measures, Bahia grass sod owners can maintain a lush and healthy lawn that is free of weeds. This will ensure Bahia grass stays looking its best and provides an attractive landscape for homeowners to enjoy.
