Regarding killing the old lawn; I got some 'Rosate 360 TF' glyphosate and dissolved 24ml in 1L water as directed and sprayed a test section, but three days later it does not look any less dead. How long should it take, and did I get the measure correct do you think?
Poison poison poison...as if there was not enough contamination going around! Why dont you go with the flow and leave the moss and add some wildflowersinstead: not only you will not be poisoning your environment but you will be making it reacher, more alive and more beautiful.
I’m about to take up the grass, how do I workout how much topsoil do I need? And what’s the machine called you used to take up the grass? My garden a tad smaller than the one in this video. What machine size would you recommend I hire?
How far down do you dig? And how much topsoil or loam should you add. Do you put enough down so dirt comes up to the edge of walkway or leave enough room for sod height?
5 years later. It would have nothing to do with his work tbh. It's all down to how the owner has treated and looked after it. If it's been watered, mowed often etc. It will be looking completely fine
@@Carpfishing4400 Well said. That's the equivalent of giving someone a plant and coming back a year later to a dead plant, it says nothing about the original plant, lol
Good video , I am about to commence something similar and was wondering after you have cultivated and levelled the existing soil to what depth do you add the new topsoil to bed your turf on . I am assuming it’s shallow enough to not require any compacting !
Looks great! But surely you should be kneeling on boards and not the freshly laid turf. That's what I do when I lay turf anyway to prevent any dips or damage.
Hi there (great video), what is this "Supreme Gold" product you mention on the listing to kill anything green? I cannot find any online reference and also, couldn't that create risk to the fresh turf? Thanks
I’m about to lay some turf, the garden had slabs down under the slabs was sharp sand and a membrane to stop weeds, Im now down to hard mud, question is Do I need to turn the hardened soil over? Or can I buy compost lay that down and then lay my grass on top ?
We have Round Up and Gallup at work which we use for controlling vegetation (mostly buddleia and the occasional giant hogweed or Japanese knotweed) Which would be the better of the two for grass.
? After killing off a lawn, would a turf cutter remove the sod so it can be rolled up or does it sometimes just break up, I sprayed off my lawn 3 weeks ago and put a scarifier through it today, one pass, I can now see how uneven it is and I’m considering removing with a turf cutter, advice would be greatly appreciated
Nice job. What short of truf you have used? how come the truf getting 2 different shades, one is green and another is light green., looks beautiful. like a football field.
