In Oklahoma, Bermuda sod is best installed in late spring to early summer, typically between mid-May and early June, when soil temperatures consistently reach around 65°F to 70°F. This timing allows the grass to establish roots and thrive during the warm growing season. It's important to avoid laying sod too early, as colder temperatures can hinder growth. Proper preparation and watering are key to ensuring successful establishment.

Can I lay zoyzia sod on top of Bermuda grass if I mow it real short and put 2 to 3 inches of top soil on top of the Bermuda?
I am not sure of the 'official' answer, but we put zoysia down in our backyard over the top of an established burmuda grass and it has done very well... we first ran a rototiller over the top of the burmuda and took out the 'clumps' of burmuda grass that this created... smoothed it with a rake and then laid the zoysia sod on top... it now looks great.... hope this helps...
