(July) We just put some sod down. Should we water once a day or twice a day? Also, we
put some Bermuda seed down. How long does it take the seed to turn to grass?

Sod needs to be kept moist to encourage the root system to grow. To start with, you may want to lightly water twice a day. We need to keep the root zone moist, not saturated. After a week or two gradually taper off to once a day, but gradually increase the amount you are applying. Then, progress to every other day until you are down to once or twice a week, depending on your yard. Your goal is an inch to an inch and a half of water per week, if natural moisture does not occur. Bermuda grass seed should germinate in 7-12 days.
