Essential Aftercare for Your Turf

After your turf has been laid, proper aftercare is crucial to ensure it establishes well and remains healthy. Here are five essential practices to follow:

Watering: Water the turf thoroughly immediately after installation, and continue to water daily for the first two weeks.
Mowing: Wait until the turf has rooted, usually about 2-3 weeks, before giving it the first mow, keeping the blades high.
Fertilising: Apply a balanced fertiliser about six weeks after installation to encourage strong root development and healthy growth.
Foot Traffic: Minimise foot traffic on the new turf for the first few weeks to allow the roots to establish without disturbance.
Weed Control: Monitor for weeds and remove them promptly to prevent competition for nutrients as the turf establishes.

By following these aftercare practices, you can ensure your new lawn grows strong and vibrant. Start caring for your turf properly to enjoy a beautiful, long-lasting lawn!

Why do I need to rake in gypsum if I'm laying turf on clay soil?

Raking in gypsum before laying turf on clay soil is crucial because it helps to break up the dense, compacted clay, improving soil structure. Gypsum allows better water penetration and root development, which are essential for the healthy establishment of your turf. By improving the soil’s ability to drain and support roots, gypsum ensures that your new turf grows stronger and more resilient in the long term.
Do I need to hire a Bobcat if I'm laying turf at my property?

Hiring a Bobcat can be highly beneficial if you’re laying turf, especially for larger areas or where significant soil movement is required. A Bobcat makes it easier to level the ground, distribute soil evenly and create a smooth, well-prepared surface for your turf. While smaller projects might be manageable without one, a Bobcat can save time and ensure a more professional result for larger turfing jobs.
