The first things you need to do are: Remove all building waste and weeds, Spread a free draining soil to a depth of 7-15cm or loosen ground and mix in appropriate soil conditioners. For sandy soils, simply mix in organic material and rotary hoe, Level the surface using a screeding board, lawn leveller or similar device, Apply a low analysis fertiliser with an N:P:K of approximately 5:6:5 or lawns.
In hot months, moisten the soil but do not make the soil too wet. Do not lay turf on hot, dry soil, Lay the turf as soon as possible after delivery using a brickwork pattern, On hot days, lay a section of turf and lightly water. Repeat this until all turf is laid. On cool days, turf can be laid all at once. Roll and water thoroughly within one hour of laying turf.
Water thoroughly for 7-10 days or until turf is established, take care that the water is saturating the soil beneath the turf. In colder months, the turf will take longer to establish. The turf should not dry out until the roots are established, When the soil has firmed and the turf has rooted down, usually 2-3 weeks after laying (longer in winter), mow lightly to tidy up the lawn.
Avoid walking on your new turf as much as possible during the establishment period to prevent the soil compacting and becoming uneven due to footprints, Enjoy your beautiful new lawn!
As with any natural product, occasional problems can occur: Pests: Control insect pests when they appear, watch for lawn grub (e.g. web worm or army worm). Apply suitable pesticides according to directions, Weeds: A well maintained lawn should require little weeding but if weeds do infest, hand eradication before seed heads develop is generally the best solution.
Mow your lawn regularly, removing no more than one third of the height per cut, Ensure your mower blades are always sharp and in good condition, Mowing height will vary depending on variety and situation but generally 2-5cm in sunny/lightly shaded areas, 5-7cm in heavier shaded areas, Try to avoid mowing your lawn when it is wet.
Lawns need to be fed to remain strong and healthy and to promote new growth and good looks, Use a complete fertiliser in early April and early September, If you need a quick green up use a fertiliser high in nitrogen to promote a lush green lawn, Do not overdo fertilisers, little and often is more beneficial.
Water thoroughly and regularly to encourage a deep and vigorous root system (turf will be able to fossick for water and therefore be more able to withstand hot dry conditions), Water only when needed, when a slight wilting is visible, usually once every 7-10 days in summer (on sandy soils more often), with much less or no water in cooler months, It is best to water in the early morning, night.
