How To Re Turf Your Lawn Properly
RE-TURFING a lawn is not a case of just laying turf straight over exposed soil as I saw some cowboys do the other day.
Their preparation was turf cut the the old kikuyu then lay the new Buffalo turf.
Two (2) big problems here:

- they didn’t kill off the kikuyu (and its complete stolon/rhizome structure) with glyphosate/roundup, nuh, just turf cut the grass.
- they didn’t even prep the soil.
