Hi all
Tuesday this week I returned back from work to find out my mrs mother had new turf laid in her garden.
The chap had come around and done it all on the quick with the old offer of I’m doing one up the road and whilst I’m here I’ll do yours - it was in need of doing and she had passed him walking to dog and chatted to him about it.
It doesn’t look great...::
He levels the ground of applied a little layer of top soil and laid the turf. There’s large areas of yellowing that I believe have come from laying ‘not ideal’ turf in hot weather.
Where do we go from here to rescue the lawn.
Do I wait for the surrounding areas to bed in and then rake out the brown and reseed or should I just overseed the areas with a seed and soil mix?
Am I over reacting and will good old watering twice a day and the sun sort this mess out?
I’ve attached a photo but must say it does look much worse in the picture.
