Tips from Ray

Choose the right grass! The selection of grass seed is simplified by using a mixture containing seed that will germinate at different intervals and produce turf that will withstand variables such as drought, full sun, heavy shade or high traffic areas. A mixture of grass seed containing fescue, bluegrass and perennial turf type rye is one example of this. Ask one of our staff which mixture is best for your use.

Watering! Water in the morning, this allows the grass to dry before the evening and reduces risk of disease. Water in the evening if it is the only possible time. Avoid light watering, less than 2.5cm (1”) as this will promote a shallow root system. Place a coffee cup under your sprinkler and time how long it takes to accumulate 2.5cm (1”). Deep watering once a week (depending on the soil type, temperature and weather conditions) will promote a healthy root system.

Aerate! Soil needs to breathe in order to grow healthy grass. Compacted soil and heavy thatch suffocates grass by preventing air, water and nutrients from reaching the root zone. Aeration equipment pulls out plugs of thatch and soil from the ground allowing grass to breathe. The plugs left behind will break down with time, watering and cutting. Be patient! They are unsightly but beneficial. Aeration can be done anytime of the year.
