Love your channel. How far was the top soil from the top concrete? Just wanting to know how far i should leave mine to get a nice edge when laying tiftuf?
Great vid mate, I put down TifTuf 4 weeks ago in Brisbane and the results are good so far. I’ll be interested to watch your progress. Thanks for all the helpful vids.
Awesome mate! I put 335m2 of TifTuf in my backyard in early Feb. It's lovely grass. I've got a bit of nutgrass (i think) and clover starting to appear in a small patch. Hoping Sedgehammer will knock them over. Keep the great content coming!
Hey mate I work for a small lawn solutions turf farm on the south coast and everyones in love with tif tuf we can't sell enough of it we actually love it so much we ripped up our RTF rescue paddock to plant tif tuf
That looks sweet mate! My Bermuda here in Central Texas is out of dormancy and the thin spots are starting to fill in nicely. You have been quite busy for the past few weeks!
Just did a TifTuf lawn price calculator for my place...I shut the calculator down, laid down, tried not to cry and then cried. No, we won’t be going with turf...great video mate.
Thanks for the ongoing great content Ben! Would be good to see a how to video laying concrete edging at that top end, shady section between the lawn and the rocks, would keep things nice and tidy. Any chance of that?
Looks great, mate, and it will only look better as it establishes. If the front edge of my lawn doesn't come in better when I overseed in the fall, I may sod it next spring. I need to get it thicker to minimize the damage that plow trucks do in the winter. You'll see it on Insta this weekend or later next week. Chelsea on Sunday. Hoping Crystal Palace helps us out w/City as well. Then off to Porto midweek and hopefully sealing a semifinal spot. Colin is bowling Sunday, so I'll miss those matches. He is getting so good! I'm almost caught up! YNWA John
Probably gonna wait until spring to do my new lawn. Any benefit to improving the soil between now and then while I wait? (ie; adding some blood and bone and turning over every couple of months?)
I'm a young turfer in Australia, and I was always told to boarder edge... Just wondering why you don't? Does it look better in the long run or just cant be bothered stuffing around with it?
Second time watching this video, have this been done in early April? is it still good time to lay new turf at the end of April- early May for sydney region ?
Great video once again Ben, and Great that you did part of your neighbours section as well, I wouldn’t recommend stones in that area, only because the bins won’t sit flat on them, Plus you’ll end up with weeds coming through, Why not pave that area or concrete....just my 2 cents worth from Someone that bought a house and the previous owners had Stones Everywhere Lol 😂, gradually getting rid of them All....🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺😎😎
I just laid some Shadetuff yesterday with a starter fertiliser, would you recommend using Plant Doctor products straight away? I bought your pack and some soil wetter. Thanks!
If you were going for a putting green I would have gone for the "Sir Grange" its been proven on putting greens around the world already. Interested to see how the TifTuf goes being cut greens heights.
@@LawnTips It should work. People make greens out of Santa Ana and the TifTuf out preforms it easily. Maybe for your sprig video go for the Sir Grange, can save some money of the massive price tag LSA put on it. **Zoysia Fanboy here ;)**
How does TiffTuff go in consecutive hard frosts? Iv got Sapphire Buff and it dies on patches every winter in Albury. Thinking about TiffTuff but i also have a dog.
Does anyone know if I am switching from Tifway 2 Hybrid Bermuda (only a year old) to TifTuf Bermuda do I need to kill all of the roots of the Tifway when I remove the grass with a sod cutter or will removing the grass with a sod cutter 2inches down do the trick and I am safe to just place the TifTuf on top after I place some new soil after removal?
What kind of Bermuda was that? And so you said it's the same as Kush, is that Australia slang, haha, thanks for the vid!! And hope your finger heals quickly
Love the vids mate! Just wondering how much that amount of turf set you back? Our backyard is nothing but stones and extremely hard soil, coming into winter now we’re paying for it a bit with our dogs needing to go outside, and if it’s been raining the white tiles throughout the entire house get trashed. So we’re looking at getting some grass growing. But it’s only a rental and don’t want to shell out stupid amounts of coin. Our other alternative is getting some topsoil delivered and then trying to start from scratch with seeds. What do you recommend? Keep up the awesome content mate! Thanks!
Hey mate! It can range in price. anywhere from $11-15 (check with your turf farm) This was 50m2 of turf. The seed would definitely be cheaper! Just a lot harder to get established and it's starting to get a bit late now to seed. Turf you can lay all year round.
Hey mate love the vids, keep up the good work 👍 Just wondering what the name of that track is that was playing when you were levelling the dirt? Cheers
Can you please get sum focus pics on that grass detail when you step that shovel between the lines I bet it looks perfect for focus pictures thanks your countrys beautiful I can tell by the sky's good bless
Man you must get some storms down there ahah! Every time you film theres a storm coming 😂 lawn goals but Doing half your neighbours lawn to nice guy ahaha
Yo mate, I’m about to lay some zoysia 👍🏼 thanks for the tips! Im also curious as to why you didn’t lay length ways? P.S. I hope your finger heals up soon
If you lay it length ways you can end up with some bad run off damage when it rains. There is a slight slope of that area and if all the side joins are following the slope you’ll have dramas when you water or it rains heavy. The way he has laid it is the preferred direction. Hope your lawn goes well for you 👍👍
I live in PHX AZ i see big potential nfor profits in this couch turf you speak of lmao jp but then way you pay grass so pretty compared to the Mexicans here just slapped that dry ass grass on and they never level there grass I think this summer where gonna rip out our irrigation system I one of our apartment complex and put a new Hunter system but this grass yo got can it work in AZ ?
Lawn Tips oh man, too much beer today on the golf course. Soz :) Edited :) Enjoy the rain while you can dude. We’ll get it here in Radelaide eventually 👍
