FAQs of Newly Installed, Fresh Lawn Maintenance 

  • When can I fertilise my lawn and how many times per year do you recommend?

    It’s best to fertilise around six weeks after installation, and then 3-4 times per year in smaller doses: Once in late autumn, once in early spring and once in mid-summer.

  • When should I start mowing?

    After one month of installation or when the grass leaf is 20-50mm long, making sure you only cut off 1/3 of the leaf blade. The length of your turf will vary depending on the amount of sun/shade it is in, etc.

  • How much do I have to water at first?

    • If you have installed in Autumn, you may only need to water once every 3 or 4 days.

    • If your turf has been installed in spring or summer, for the first two weeks water thoroughly once a day.

  • When can I stop daily watering?

    If you try and lift your turf and it’s rooted in, ease off to watering only once a week.

  • How often should I continue watering after the turf is settled in?

    • Heavy clay-type soils retain water for longer, so they can be watered less often, but make sure you water at a slower rate so the water soaks in well.

    • Sandier soils on the other hand are well-draining, so water your lawn more frequently, but give a little less water than you would in clay.

  • What fertilisers do you recommend?

    • Slow release, no-burn fertilizers.

    • In Spring use a high-nitrogen fertilizer. This promotes new leaf and shoot growth.

    • In Autumn use a high-potassium fertilizer. This protects from frost damage and the harsh cold
