Water & Mowing

  1. Water twice daily for the first two weeks, then daily after that.
  2. Once you see that the grass is setting well, onge can water once a week or according to seasonal changes.
  3. When you water, make sure that the underside of the turf and the first 50mm of top soil is damp.
  4. Avoid over watering of lawn grass as this encourages development of lawn diseases.
  5. Don’t water late in the evening because the grass stays wet overnight, as this can lead to diseases.
  6. You can give your lawn grass its first cut after two weeks.
  7. If your lawn grass has over-grown don’t mow more than 1/3 of the leaf length as this will put your grass under stress.
  8. Mow kikuyu grass after reaching a height of about 25mm — 30mm.
  9. You can now mow all season’s evergreen after reaching a height of about 30mm — 35mm.
