Sodding is the process of planting grass by laying pre-grown patches of turf or grass. It is often used on lawns, golf courses, and other areas where a consistent, level grass surface is desired. Unlike seed sowing, sod installation provides an immediate green space that needs little water or care to become established. Sod is typically grown on farms and then harvested in large sheets or rolls. The rolls of sod are then delivered to the desired location and installed by hand. Although it is more expensive than seed sowing, sodding is often the preferred method for professional landscapers and homeowners who want a low-maintenance lawn.
