Sod is the cultivation of various pure natural grass types for the purpose of commercial whole sale and retail mechanical harvesting and distribution for an instant mature grass lawn experience by means of installation. Sod is often sold by square feet measure, and often takes the form of mat-like roles. Sod is by far a better choice when planing a new natural lawn compared to the use of seeds or plugs for three major reasons:

• Sod installation creates an instant mature, lush green natural grass lawn (however the new lawn requires time and care to grow and get established)
  
• Sod installation helps to eliminate soil lead chemical exposure, especially if one has children and or elderly at home
  
• Sod installed lawns can immediately help prevent regrowth of weeds (some weeds can be persistent and may require manual intervention initially); help prevent soil erosion; improve the beauty of yard surroundings, clean the environment, and promote good health and quality of life.
  

S​od (natural grass) can be installed from spring (March/April) to the fall (November). The only difference is in the application frequency of water; in the spring and fall, water application will be less frequent than in the summer.
