What are the benefits of growing Certified turf? Maintaining genetic purity has become a focal point in the industry and certification standards insure it. Our nursery is responsible for following the set guidelines from the NC Crop Improvement Association and our stock is inspected prior to your plugs being shipped out. You will receive a special blue tag with every tray we send, which can track your plug to the foundation field from which it came.
Each unit of order is 1 grow tray (50 plugs) to be used with our AUGER drill bit. This tray will cover about 68 square feet when using 12" spacing between plugs.
Installation Guide
Installation Guide
Using the appropriate plugging tool, create the hole for the grass plug.
- 38 cell plug trays use the ProPlugger planting tool to create the hole. Just step on the the plugger to a depth of 2", twist and pull out the plug of soil.
- 50 cell plug trays use the Drill Auger to create the hole. Just attach your auger to any drill and use it to create a 2" deep hole.
Next, remove the plug from the grow tray. The root ball can be scored and/or dipped into Soil Moist root dip prior to planting. Place the plug into the hole you created and step on it to ensure that there are no air pockets in the soil.

Let customers speak for us
Arrived perfectly. Healthy mature plugs. Went in the ground easily.
Amazing and durable grass plugs. Always expedited shipping and superb quality upon arrival. Moderately affordable. Highly recommended…
The order process was easy and the plugs arrived in great shape.Very satisfied with nc grass plugs and definitely would order from them again.
They are in the ground and seem to be doing good!
I have purchased centipede plugs from NC Grass and couldn't be more impressed. Before my order I called customer service to get information about their product. They were very helpful and extremely courteous. My plugs arrived within 48 hours in perfect packaging and in perfect condition. I have placed 250 plugs and following their instructions they have taken like originally grown in my lawn.
We received our first shipment of grass plugs from NC Plugs, and couldn’t be more pleased. These plugs look amazing! So much so that they look fake! Lush, green and healthy!
We purchased the starter bundle as our first order, which was ideal. The included Pro Plugger tool and fertilizer sets you up for success.
We’ve since placed two additional orders of plugs, and they arrived exactly as the first order.
We also appreciate the fast delivery. You can’t miss with NC Plugs!
Came with strong roots… growing like”weeds”. Looks like they will be the solution to a difficult problem in the yard.
Excellent company to deal with.The plugs are fresh and well rooted fast shipping.
Thank you for a great product!
Very happy with my "starter" plugs and the support Paul provided. The plug tool for the 38 plug trays works very easily to prep and plant the plugs you buy but can also be used to pull plugs from the established part of your lawn to fill bare spots, etc. Highly recommenf=d
the grass was delivered fast and everything was green. Looked fake when I 1st opened the box. Would purchase again.
These were beautiful, healthy grass plugs. We bought the tool to dig the hole for the plugs and it worked perfectly! We would definitely buy again.
Called up NC grass plugs and ordered my centipede grass plugs on Tuesday and received them the next afternoon.All the plugs were in perfect condition and are doing well after planting them.
