How Many Plugs Should One Buy?
When you are ready to start your Amazoy zoysia lawn, the first thing you need to do is measure the area for the square footage. Following the steps below will assist you in calculating how many plugs you will need. We recommend 2 plugs per every square foot. Planting at this rate, it will take about 1 to 1 1/2 seasons (years) for your zoysia plugs to completely fill in. You can increase or decrease the number of plugs per square foot, however this will alter the fill-in time.
To determine the total number of plugs required, measure the length and width of the area to be covered. There is no need to be exact. Getting the approximate length by width and adding a bit to both will ensure you order enough plugs. It may make it easier if you break the area down in sections. For example, if you are planting your entire lawn, your backyard would be one section, side lawn would be the second section, and front lawn would be the third section.
Once you have the measurements, enter them in our plug calculator. It will determine the number of plugs you need whether you are planting one plug every square foot or up to 4 plugs per square foot. The calculator will help figure out how many plugs you need if your lawn is circular, triangular, or free-form in shape; just break these areas down into smaller blocks. You can enter up to eight areas on the calculator at one time.
