You can lay turf at any time of the year, but
the best time of year is during summer. After
you have laid turf, make sure you immediately
begin to water it. In comparison, spring and
autumn offers favorable conditions for
sowing most seed lawn.

Buying your turf from your local gardening center
will ensure that you get the right type of
grass for your area. Using turf is especially useful
more patchy up your lawn. Or you can use the turf
to create a entirely new lawn.

PARING THE SOIL

But before you start laying the turf, you need to
repair the soil. Tilling the topsoil depth of
2 to 5 inches will ensure that the ground is well
mineralized. After this, add a small amount of
fertilizer with a small amount of water. Now
your soil is ready for the turf.

On delivery day slightly water again to ensure
the soil is damp but not muddy. The turf should be
put down in a 24 hour timeline. Before you start
laying the turf make sure that you inspect it.
Pick up the turf and shake it to make sure
it does not fall apart.

HOW TO LAY THE TURF

Lay the turf in single rows and tap down with a
board on which you can apply equal amount of pressure.
Tightly push each day against each other and avoid
gaps at all costs. Carefully using knife to trim
corners and avoid eating strips at the edges.

After the installation, use a lawn roller
and one third of water to press the sod roots
into the contact soil. By watering the turf
immediately you prevent that her from shrinking.
