Green lawn in one day

Robust lawns that are resistant to trampling, consist of two types of grass — 70% red fescue 30% Kentucky bluegrass. This composition of herbs creates a dense, wide stand.





Fig. 1. Quality turf to turf

Turf roll lawns grown in landscape nurseries within two years. To give "presentation" is a special machine cuts the turf with a thin layer of soil and plant roots, and then artificial turf is wound into rolls.

The structure of artificial turf is a grass with quartz sand and rubber granules in the cells between the blades of grass. Quality lawn roll has almost no weeds and the grass mowed at the same height. The density of greenery allows small bald spots that are overgrown after laying the lawn. The thickness of the root system should be 1.5-2 cm. Width of rolled lawns is 0.4 meters.

When buying artificial turf, expand it and explore the quality of the product. The grass cover must not be musty smell and yellowing. The presence of such defects suggests that turf roll was cut long ago. Ideally, the artificial grass is laid on the dacha on the day of the cut turf.

Before laying the turf roll is necessary to thoroughly prepare the land. Important: the preparatory work should be carried out before laying the turf to the soil did not get weed seeds.

Preparing the site, remove the stones, debris and, if necessary, release the soil of the old grass and weeds (you can work the land with herbicides), scapulae plot to a depth of 5-10 cm, align it with a rake and fill in the fertile soil of the depression created. Next, give the site topography with a slope from the center to the edges; this must be done to prevent stagnant water in the middle of the lawn. Carefully prepared surface compacted using roller or foot across the Board.

The day before the start of the work abundantly watered land, prepared for laying sod lawns. Sami rolls from time to time is also sprayed to prevent drying of the root system. If one day failed to lay turf rolls completely, you need to write them in expanded form, periodically pouring water.

Laying turf is butt jointed without overlap elements on each other. On long runs the joints between the elements should not overlap, so each new number is shifting, according to the principle of masonry. Trim the edges of the lawn make a bayonet shovel.

Covered turf by the roll surface to be processed lawn roller to remove bubbles between the soil and roots of the lawn. Due to this rolling grass lawn will soon take root, there is a clutch of grass and soil. The joints between the plates fall asleep fertile soil and sand.

Completed laying the abundant watering of the lawn. To make sure that watering is done efficiently, a few areas of the pitch lifted the corners of canvases and checked the moisture content in the turf and soil beneath it. In the next two weeks, watering is done regularly. In the first week — daily, while the second through the day. In the rain — not more often than once in two days.

A few times a month a mulching lawn: piercing pitch in several places to a depth. A month after laying an artificial grass lawn it should be fertilized with mineral fertilizers.

Rolling lawns laid in the period from spring to autumn, only in warm weather. To walk on the grass almost immediately after laying and rolling the roller, and use the "in full" — in two weeks. During this time the turf is tightly integrated with the frame ground of turf.

Depending on purposes there are decorative rolling lawns and lawns of special purpose. First used in the landscape design, the second for the arrangement of sports and children's playgrounds, soccer fields, etc. Lawns of special purpose significantly reduce the number of injuries in sports and children's games.

Decorative rolling lawns come in several types. This is a grass parterre is intended for installation in large open spaces, Park and garden lawns — gardening for a relatively small territory and Mauritanian or meadow lawns, for small lawns, etc.

Turf can be quite expensive. Moreover, sports turf or lawns of special purpose are more expensive than ornamental lawns. One such coil is 250-300 rubles, while the decorative roll — from 50 to 200 rubles. One meter of land required 1.25 rolls of turf grass. To calculate the total number of coils, multiply the total square footage by a factor of 1.25. To the result add another 5-10%, "just in case".
