Aftercare GuideMaintaining your Rolawn lawn

Water itWaterWatering your new Rolawn turf is the single most important step you need to take to establish a beautiful and healthy lawn.. Start watering on the day turf is laid. On hot days, you may need to commence watering large lawns prior to laying all the turf.. Ensure that the new lawn is never short of water. Lift corners of the turf to check water has percolated through to the underlying soil.. Water repeatedly until the turf is well established.. If rainfall is experienced you still need to check that the lawn is receiving suffi cient water.. It is best to water turf in the early morning or during the evening so that less water is lost to evaporation.. Once established, occasional watering during dry periods should be adequate.MowBe prepared to mow your new lawn as soon as it needs it, provided this can be done without disturbing the turf.If turf is dislodged, replace it and allow the turf more time to establish before recommencing mowing.. Don't delay. Most people allow turf to get too long. Mowing encourages establishment, although this should be the only traffi c in the fi rst few weeks.. Never remove more than one third of the grass blade length.. Alternate the direction in which you mow your lawn.. Clippings do not have to be collected if they are minimal, provided sunlight is reaching the blades of grass. Clippings in small amounts return nutrients to the soil, encouraging a healthy lawn.2Immediately after laying Soon after laying
