Laying a lawn in January?
I have read various posts on how to lay turf, but none on when to lay it.
I would ideally like to lay some toward the end of the month. I am in the SE of England. It's only a small lawn 4mx4m. Is it just the frost i need to worry about? Regards. |

Is it just the frost i need to worry about? Regards. No, the rain. Wait until March. Otherwise you'll never get the soil firm or level enough, so afterwards when you walk on it lumps and bumps will develop. -- Tumbleweed Remove theobvious before replying (but no email reply necessary to newsgroups) |

Yes mainly. Dont lay when its frosty and I would give it a miss if the
ground is too wet. Make sure you use a board when you lay the turf at any time. |
