As summer fades and cooler weather sets in, September is the perfect month for fall sod installation. For landscapers, general contractors, and golf course superintendents, it’s a golden opportunity to finish strong and prepare for the colder months ahead. At Genesis Sod Farms, we specialize in wholesale sod supply for contractors, ensuring every project gets high-quality turf delivered on time.
Why Fall Sod Installs Outperform Summer
Unlike summer’s heat, September offers the ideal balance: warm soil and cooler air. These conditions make it easier for sod to establish strong roots. Contractors who schedule sod installation now benefit from:
- Faster rooting with stable soil temperatures.
- Lower irrigation needs, saving time and resources.
- Healthier turf, better prepared to withstand winter dormancy.
Contractor Advantages of September Sod Installation
- Landscapers: Fall is the best time to tackle subdivisions, commercial properties, and residential lawns. Sod laid in September looks established by spring.
- Golf Course Superintendents: Sod repairs now ensure smoother play in spring, with tee boxes, fairways, and greens ready to handle foot traffic.
- General Contractors: Fresh sod gives completed job sites a professional finish, creating curb appeal that makes clients happy.
