How Do You Keep Grass Plugs Alive

Keep the area wet for the first two weeks, then slowly reduce watering, but keep the ground moist. After the fourth week, soak the area once or twice per week until the plugs have completely covered the area. This additional watering will keep the plugs actively growing and spreading as quickly as possible.

How often do you have to water grass plugs?

First week to 10 days: Water daily in the early evening. Next couple of weeks: As the plugs begin to root-out into the soil and grow, watering can be re- duced to every 2nd or 3rd day.

Will grass plugs spread?

A grass plug is an individual turf plant that is grown in a tray; their size can vary, but generally an individual plug measures anywhere between 1.5–3 inches in length/width. Planted from 9–12 inches apart, they will continue to spread and fill in over time, creating a solid ground cover of your preferred grass type.
