High-Quality Turf in Albion Park

You should be watering twice daily (morning or evening) until your lawn is fully established. Ensure your turf receives a deep soaking both morning and evening before reducing the amount to once every two or three days in the following weeks. Timing can vary depending on your turf variety and seasonal changes. 

A quick tip: place a glass on your lawn and wait until it is half full for each watering. This ensures your turf receives the accurate dose of water for each application.

The type of turf you choose directly influences not only the appearance of your lawn but also its resilience and longevity. Certain turf types like Kikuyu are more suited to heavy foot traffic areas and sports fields. Others like Buffalo grass are more shade tolerant, making them a good choice for gardens with large trees. The choice of turf also affects your lawn’s water and maintenance requirements.

Maintaining a healthy and attractive turf requires regular care. This includes watering, which should be deep and infrequent to encourage strong root growth. Mowing should be done at the recommended height for your chosen turf variety, removing only one-third of the leaf blade at a time. Fertilising should occur several times a year, typically in spring and autumn, to provide the turf with essential nutrients. Timely and appropriate action against weeds, pests and diseases is also an important aspect of lawn maintenance.
