When you use the right preparations for seed your right it is the cheaper way to having a beautiful yard makes sense to me why have to pay a arm and a leg for sod trust me DIY’s you can do it 👊🏽✊🏽

Yep, that's what she said .
Catherine I'm pretty sure you're correct on the using sod is really more affective, there's way more work, time and risk of failure with seed .

Years late but never too late to ask, why about patch work with sod? If seeds are more prone to damage then what’s the time difference between sod and seed if you can’t walk on them

Hi! Just to clarify... kids and dogs are not supposed to walk/run over the seeds after being planted?

English is not my first language but sod isn’t vulgar? 😅
