Yellow Grass: Normal Transplant Shock
When grass is harvested, its root system is severed and can no longer access water from the earth. It is not unusual for grass to begin to stress & yellow as soon as it is harvested. The discoloration will vary depending on ambient temperatures, time of year, sod variety, prompt installation, irrigation schedule, etc. For example, grass will yellow much more and quicker during the hottest months of the year, going into drought-induced dormancy if not irrigated properly. It will also yellow in the late fall/early winter as it transitions into winter dormancy. As you can see, it is not uncommon for grass to be prone to yellowing for nearly half the year+, depending on weather and maintenance.
El césped es un producto vivo que depende de instalación rápida & correcto riego to pull out of transplant shock and establish healthily. Please thoroughly read the information below, and refer to the riego article nested within our Grass Care pages for instructions & tips on determining your sprinkler system’s efficiency to ensure your sod receives agua suficiente.
As pictured to the left, Bermuda varieties will yellow faster than other varieties; however, all turfgrass types puede yellow similarly durante hotter months & letargo invernal. As mentioned previously, please install & water the grass promptly, as this will be the factor más crítico en determinar el sod’s long-term health & green-up rate. Dependiendo de la preparación del terreno antes de la instalación, la temperatura ambiente, el clima y su programa de riego, el césped debe verde volver arriba within the first few weeks with proper water.
