Tips For Use

Maintenance:

  • Begin mowing the new stand approximately 3 to 4 weeks after emergence, depending on the conditions at the time of establishment. 
  • The recommended minimum mowing height during establishment is 2.5cm (1-inch). 
  • Once the sod matures, the mowing height can be gradually reduced to a minimum of 1cm. 
  • As the mowing height decreases, the required management level will be increased.

Fertilisation:

  • Apply fertiliser several times per year to improve the overall look and performance of the lawn.
  • Summer conditions require mowing weekly, and in Winter, mowing every 2nd or 3rd week.
  • The management intensity level will determine the amount of nitrogen required monthly. 
  • Sports turf installations should use the higher rate, while residential lawns may prefer to use the lower rate.
