At Main Street Sod, we believe that a great lawn should not only look good but also be easy to maintain, durable enough to handle family and pets, and capable of standing up to the elements. That’s why we’re proud to offer TifTuf – a revolutionary Bermuda grass variety that checks all the boxes for a healthy, vibrant lawn. 

What is TifTuf?

TifTuf is a cutting-edge variety of Bermuda grass developed for its superior drought tolerance, durability, and overall performance. Born from decades of research and development, TifTuf offers a unique blend of fine texture and robust resilience, making it ideal for homeowners, businesses, and golf courses alike.

Whether you’re upgrading your front lawn, creating a recreational space for the family, or looking for a low-maintenance, high-performance grass for a large commercial area, TifTuf is engineered to meet your needs. It’s the perfect choice for a lawn that needs to look beautiful with minimal effort.

Features of TifTuf Sod

• Drought Tolerance: TifTuf has been scientifically engineered to require up to 38% less water than other Bermuda grass varieties. Its deep root system and efficient water usage make it a perfect choice for drought-prone areas or places with water restrictions.
• Superior Wear Resistance: Whether it’s kids running around, pets playing, or frequent gatherings, TifTuf stands up to heavy traffic without showing wear. It’s perfect for those high-use areas.
• Fine Texture and Dark Green Color: One of the standout features of TifTuf is its luxurious, fine texture and rich, dark green hue. It creates a lush, thick carpet-like appearance that elevates the look of any space.
• Heat and Disease Resistance: TifTuf thrives in hot climates and is resistant to a variety of diseases and pests. This makes it a reliable choice, especially during the hot summer months.

The Benefits of Choosing TifTuf Sod

• Low Watering Needs: Thanks to its exceptional drought tolerance, TifTuf requires significantly less water than traditional Bermuda grasses. This means a beautiful lawn with less hassle and lower water bills.
• Resilient to Foot Traffic: TifTuf’s durability allows it to recover quickly from heavy foot traffic, making it an excellent choice for lawns, parks, and sports fields that see constant use.
• Long-Lasting Green: TifTuf’s strong root system ensures that it will stay green and healthy even in the hottest of conditions, offering a stunning aesthetic that lasts throughout the growing season.
• Reduced Maintenance: While TifTuf does require regular mowing and occasional fertilizing, it is less prone to pests and diseases, meaning you’ll spend less time managing your lawn and more time enjoying it.

Climate Best Suited for TifTuf

TifTuf thrives in warm-season climates, making it the ideal grass for regions where temperatures rise above 75°F during the summer months. It is well-suited for areas in the southern United States but can also adapt to a range of growing conditions. Whether you’re in the heart of the Sun Belt or an area that experiences seasonal droughts, TifTuf will thrive in:

• Hot and Dry Climates: TifTuf’s drought tolerance makes it an excellent choice for areas with high summer temperatures and limited rainfall.
• Mild Winters: While it’s not suited for freezing winters, TifTuf can handle mild winter temperatures and will go dormant during the colder months, saving on water and fertilizer while still being easy to bring back in the spring.
• Areas with Water Restrictions: If you live in a region where water conservation is important, TifTuf is the perfect solution to maintain a lush, beautiful lawn without wasting water.

Care & Maintenance of TifTuf Sod

TifTuf is one of the easiest grass varieties to maintain, but like any grass, it does require some attention to ensure it thrives. Here’s how you can take care of your TifTuf lawn:

• Mowing: For best results, mow your TifTuf lawn to a height of 1 to 1.5 inches. Regular mowing will help keep the grass looking neat, encourage dense growth, and keep weeds in check.
• Watering: After installation, it’s important to water TifTuf consistently until it’s well-established. Once established, it requires less water than traditional Bermuda grass. Aim for 1 to 1.5 inches of water per week.
• Fertilizing: TifTuf benefits from a regular fertilization schedule during the growing season. A slow-release fertilizer applied every 6 to 8 weeks will keep your lawn looking lush and healthy.
• Aeration: Aerating your lawn every year is important for improving soil health and ensuring optimal root growth. This is especially useful if your lawn experiences heavy foot traffic.
• Weed and Pest Control: While TifTuf is naturally resistant to most pests, it’s still a good idea to keep an eye out for weeds, especially during the initial establishment phase. Regularly remove any weeds by hand or use a targeted herbicide.
