Lobo Zoysiagrass Plugs

Lobo® Zoysiagrass plugs offer exceptional turf quality and durability with minimal watering and maintenance, making it perfect for high-quality home lawns across diverse climates​​. Lobo Zoysiagrass plugs establish faster and require less water than seed. Plugs are a more affordable option compared to sod, making them a cost-effective choice. They provide a natural solution for repairing a damaged lawn, particularly in small areas. Our Lobo Zoysiagrass Plugs come in a 72-count tray and can cover up to 72 square feet when spaced 6–18 inches apart on center. For quicker ground cover, plant each plug closer together. Each plug is 1.25 inches long x 1.25 inches wide x 2 inches tall. Lobo® Zoysia Grass Plugs Instructions To install grass plugs, follow these steps: Collect a soil sample and make any required soil amendments to create a conducive environment for plugs to grow. Prepare the soil by removing any weeds or debris. Mow existing lawn close to the ground. Rake the soil smooth and level. Water the soil thoroughly. Dig up or use an auger bit to drill holes for the plugs, spacing each hole 6–18 inches apart. Fertilize the holes before planting the grass plugs with a fertilizer that has a lot of phosphorus like Lawnifi Grow, the first bottle of the New Lawn Starter Box. Use Soil Moist Granules to reduce plant stress and watering. Press the plugs into the soil firmly, and use additional soil to fill the holes, ensuring the plugs are securely positioned and upright in the ground. The grass blades should be level with the ground. Keep the soil moist 6–8 inches deep every day until the plugs are established for the first 10–20 days after installation. This may require 2–4 waterings per day. Once new runners start to appear, decrease watering to twice a week. Ensure firm root establishment before mowing; gently tug a section to check. Mow only when the grass is dry to avoid soil compression and root issues. Set your mower at the highest level initially to prevent a vacuum effect; lower it gradually for future mowings.   Shipping Schedule Plug trays ship Monday-Wednesday with an 11am cut-off the prior business day.
