Back on 6/5/17 we went and purchased sod and soil. We planted it within 20 minutes of purchase and watered it immediately. They told us to water 4 times a day for 15 minutes, which we did. On the 3rd day the grass began to die. I went to star nursery, they had me buy a product and apply it to lawn. The lawn has pretty much dead with only about 5%. Went back to star for advice. At first the older guy said we were not watering enough. Than he stated we were doing it too much. Than he said the grass won't grow without in ground sprinklers. He just wanted to blame us for it dying. All we wanted was advice. Not get our money back. He had no clue what he was talking about. We asked if we would be able to put grass seed down to help it grow again. He said no. Before we .left without any advice, my husband bought grass seed and 2 bags of soil. Well guess what? We have grass growing from seed. Not from the advice of the old guy. We water it 3 times a day by hand. I have about 70% lawn now, and more comes up everyday. We wasted money by buying sod at this location. So here's to you for your lack of helping, on a subject you obviously don't know anything about. This store does Not even deserve 1 star. But the other people can be helpful. This had nothing to do with the extreme temperatures. That didn't happen for two weeks and it was already dead.my plants that I had planted the day after we put down sod are doing great and was watered just as much.
