Oh... The lawn is just a sore subject for us))) It turned out to be such a difficult matter... We didn’t expect it))) We leveled the soil, sowed it, covered it with ultrasil, then chased the children so that they wouldn’t run on the young grass, and even the dogs wouldn’t they let me in. And in the end, all the torment turned out to be in vain... We bought them in rolls later, everything took root, while it grows, it does not require special care. We only pour it thoroughly in dry weather and that’s it. We've been having fun for the third season already, let's see what happens this year... Usually the snow is gone and everything is green. I won’t tell you where I bought it right away, but if necessary, I’ll clarify later.
So, making a good lawn on your own is completely problematic? Is the store-bought one expensive? I want a green and even rug that would please the eye, but somehow it doesn’t work out....
It is quite possible to create a good lawn on your own and there are real examples of this, but you need to put hard work into it. Finding a site for planting a lawn is half the battle) that is, without holes, bumps, etc. You need to prepare the ground. Fertilize, and then dig up and mix with fertilizers for good development of the root system. After this, you need to roll the soil, preferably with a special roller for lawns. This is roughly the technology.
The main thing is to make the surface of the earth as level as possible.Well, it’s natural to weed out all the weeds first. Next, thoroughly wet the soil and sow the lawn. When he comes up, find all the crops and sow the seeds there. Then all that remains is to water it on time, remove weeds and mow it.
And I saw great ideas for a flower bed made from old things - I like it, I’ll use some of it myself.
Planting a beautiful lawn is a big deal. From the beginning, and this is perhaps one of the most important points. This is leveling the area for a lawn. Tamping. Then we sow gas and sprinkle with sand, and tamp again. And then don’t forget to water it.
The main thing in a proper lawn is the correct watering and the correct selection of plants. There are plants that are grown for lawns in the shade, and there are those that love the sun more.
Hello, I live in Pushkino M.O., I decided to share my experience in landscaping a site, or rather how to sow grass near the house. It all started with the fact that I have 500 acres, and one day I went to various Internet sources on how to do everything correctly, it seems like everything is just to level the ground and sow grass, and well, water the whole thing. It turned out that this was not the case. It was necessary to level it with a cultivator tool, you also need a certain layer of earth to form turf and have better seedlings, also certain seeds and shade-tolerant ones if there is a lot of shade well, not capricious to our weather conditions. Having looked at all these conditions, I decided to turn to professionals for help and began searching on the Internet, I want to say a huge choice, but also the price tag, as they say, who knows what, Well, I came across the guys Vladimir and Alexey their company is called, the guys came, measured the plot, discussed all the details that I wanted, they prepared a contract. As a result, the work was done quite quickly in 1 week, everything was leveled, new soil was brought in, the lawn was sown. In three weeks the plot was unrecognizable, the lawn was dark green the colors are generally beautiful. So it’s good to try on your own, well, everyone should mind their own business.
The easiest way to make a meadow lawn, it seems to me. No need to bother with sowing and caring for grass. If you take it stupidly, you won’t be able to weed the weeds in the area and anything will grow on it - just know that you trim it on time. And if someone pesters you about not cleaning up, you can always say that this is the last squeak of this season - to have a meadow lawn on your property.
I like the Moorish lawn better. It’s quite boring to look at a monotonous green landscape, but it will be much more fun to watch the cheerful colorful variety of wildflowers and herbs.It just seems to me that caring for a Moorish lawn is even more difficult than a regular one.
A standard green lawn is easy to care for, just mow it and that’s it, but it needs to be grown correctly from the very beginning. You can, of course, just buy the lawn itself and lay it, or you can grow it yourself.
I never thought that arranging a lawn would be such a difficult task. I always thought that it was enough to buy grass seeds, plow the ground and sow, and then water on time. Will such actions really not be enough for the grass to sprout and grow further?
The lawn must be properly seeded and the area leveled for it. And one of the main reasons is to trim it so that it looks like the picture in the magazine. It’s just that on such a lawn you can lie and roll around without any problems, both for children and adults.
I agree that a good lawn requires constant attention and care. I sowed a lawn of ryegrass and bluegrass. This is the second year already. It has grown and is pleasing to the eye. The better you level the ground at the very beginning, the easier it will be for you to maintain later.
