Sharp sand - how much should I spread at a time i.e. how deep should
it sit on the lawn?

and thanks for your time


sharp sand is no god for ur lawn it will not blend with your soil profile
creating a root break use proper lawn sand


I dont agree.
Even my local garden centre has stopped selling anythng other than sharp
sand. They used to sell it as 'Horticultural Sharp Sand', now it is just
plain 'Sharp Sand', the same as from a builders merchants.
