[quote=Anonymous]You can put sod on clay, but it would be best to till in some topsoil and compost into the clay to give the sod its best shot. Whatever you do, you need to loosen the soil under the sod so the roots have somewhere to grow down. Ideal is to till tha area. Second best is to aerate before laying sod. Actually covering with top soil isn't good either - there is still nowhere for grass roots to penetrate the soil. Have you done a soil test to see the % of prganic matter in your existing soil?
