Fingers crossed on newly laid sod...advice needed

wlai

Fingers crossed, this is the 3rd time I've resodded my front yard lawn, because I'm just all brown thumbs when it comes to lawn. I could use some advice!

So I just lay down new sod after putting in the prescribed amount of lime, mycorrhizal agent, and some new topsoil. And right on time it rained abit tonight here in Seattle. Hope it's off to a good start.

I didn't put in starter fertilizer as the soil test indicated, since I figure I'm laying sod rather than reseeding. Was that a mistake? Is it too late to apply it on top rather than on the soil?

And any recommendation on watering schedule? We are looking at a week's worth of cool weather, but looks to be dry.
