Tips for Growing a New Lawn
Turf refers to the grass and thin layer of topsoil underneath it held together by its roots, and it usually comes in rolls for easy transportation and installation. If you want to grow new grass in your garden, you can lay natural turf over the soil.
-
Preparation: remove any existing vegetation and debris and prepare a flat and smooth site for your new grass. Your turf suppliers should spray a weed killer over the soil before planting your lawn.
-
Watering: water your new lawn for 15 to 30 minutes immediately after installation to prevent it from drying. We recommend watering your new grass for ten minutes every day for the first two weeks. In hot weather, you may need to water it more frequently.
-
Mowing: only mow your new lawn once the grass has rooted firmly in the soil. You can lift a corner of the turf to test - if you can raise a large portion of turf, wait a few more weeks before mowing. Do not cut the new grass too short within the first three to four weeks of growth. The leaves absorb sunlight, helping the plant grow and root in the soil, and you should allow them to grow longer until the lawn is established.
-
Rooting period. Your new lawn may take two to three weeks to root firmly in the soil and adjust to its environment. Try not to walk over the lawn during the rooting period, especially when it’s wet, to minimise damage and encourage even growth.
-
​Pest control. Spray the site with pesticides before you lay your new lawn to create an optimal environment for growth. We recommend checking your grass for signs of beetles, worms, and grubs regularly.
Why Laying Turf is the Best Way to Grow a New Lawn
-
Premium quality grass. Professional growers cultivate and harvest turf on grass farms. The farmers use agricultural equipment and methods to create the ideal environmental conditions for grass to thrive. The soil your turf comes from is kept free of stones and weeds and regularly inspected for quality.
-
Creates an even lawn. Turf layers can easily install turf in small or irregular spaces with neat results. The flat strips of grass tile seamlessly across the soil, and every roll of turf has an even thickness and colour. Laying grass as turf often yields better results than growing it from seeds. Seeds don’t germinate consistently across an area and may cause uneven growth with irregular edges.
-
Time-saving. Laying grass turf instantly transforms an open patch of soil into a green lawn. The installation only takes a few hours, and your lawn is ready to use within a few weeks. Choosing turf is a much faster method of growing a lawn than sowing grass seeds, which can take months to grow to maturity. Turf layers can also save you time by preparing the soil before installation to ensure the ground is ready for your new lawn.
-
Low-maintenance. Grass seeds are vulnerable to environmental threats during their germination period - you must protect them from birds and pests, and they require frequent watering and weeding. Laying turf is a much lower maintenance method of growing grass by comparison. Weeds are unlikely to affect turf lawns as they are grown in controlled conditions and installed on well-prepared soil.
-
You can lay turf all year round. Laying turf in Brisbane is a year-round activity, and your turf lawn will grow even if you plant it during the colder months. The grass has reached maturity and can handle cold weather or drought more successfully than grass seedlings. Choosing turf is ideal for making garden improvements during winter when the space is less functional.
How to Choose a Turf Variety
-
Hot and sunny climates: Blue Couch turf thrives in direct sunlight. This drought-resistant grass requires minimal watering and feels soft to the touch. It makes for a comfortable and lush summer lawn.
-
Shaded areas: Buffalo grasses are the best choice for shady areas as they can survive with as little as two hours of sunlight a day. It offers a spongy feel and rich colour that sustains through winter.
-
Hard-wearing grass: Wintergreen Couch offers excellent frost and drought resistance and is suited to a vast range of environments and unpredictable weather patterns. This grass variety grows rapidly and regenerates well in high-traffic areas where surface damage occurs.
-
Child-friendly lawn: We recommend Sir Walter Buffalo for Brisbane families with young children. The grass is a soft, bouncy, and low-allergenic variety and is a very hard-wearing grass that can survive under constant damage from children playing and running across the lawn.
-
Low-maintenance. Empire Zoysia turf is an ideal variety for low-maintenance lawns. The versatile grass is suited for shady and sunny conditions, with good durability and drought resistance. You will likely not need to cut it during winter at all.
Care Tips For Your New Lawn
New lawns require some extra maintenance during the first few weeks after installation. No matter which variety you choose, there are a few routine care practices to follow for Empire Zoysia, Buffalo, and Couch Turf. Our Brisbane grass suppliers provide tips on how to care for your new turf below.
-
Preparation. A well-prepared site is crucial to successful turf installations that make for smooth and lush lawns. Make sure the site for your new grass is as flat and smooth as possible, removing any existing vegetation and debris from the area. We suggest spraying a weed killer over the soil before planting new grass.
-
Watering. Make sure you keep your new lawn adequately hydrated within the first few weeks after installation. Water the new turf for 15 to 30 minutes immediately after installation to stop it from drying out. We recommend watering your new grass for ten minutes every day for the first two weeks. In hot weather, you may need to water it more frequently.
-
Mowing. Only mow your new lawn once the grass has rooted firmly in the soil. You can lift a corner of the turf to test - if you can raise a large portion of turf, wait a few more weeks before mowing. Do not cut the new grass too short within the first three to four weeks of growth. The leaves absorb sunlight, helping the plant grow and root in the soil, and you should allow them to grow longer until the lawn is established.
-
Rooting period. Your new lawn may take two to three weeks to root firmly in the soil and adjust to its environment. We advise you not to walk over the lawn during the rooting period to minimise damage and encourage even growth. Your new grass is vulnerable when it is wet, and you should be especially careful not to walk on it during watering.
-
Pest control. Our experienced turf layers in Brisbane recommend regular pest control for new and established lawns. Preventing damage to young grass is easier than replacing dead lawn once a pest infestation arises. We recommend checking your grass for signs of beetles, worms, and grubs regularly. Spray the site with pesticides before you lay your new lawn to create an optimal environment for growth.
