Carpet Grass
Maintained.
Price: 1 SQ.M
Even though Carpetgrass is a low-maintenance turfgrass, it is still important to follow some simple Carpetgrass maintenance tips to attain an attractive and aesthetically pleasing Carpet grass lawn.
- It is vital to water your Carpetgrass each week with either supplemental irrigation or rainfall. At the initial stage, irrigation is important to establish roots from the Carpetgrass seeds, but over time, it will require less maintenance. However, sandy soils may require more watering in case rainfall isn’t sufficient. Note that watering during the spring can be beneficial to prevent or reduce problems in the summer.
- Mowing is essential, especially during summer, since Carpetgrass can produce seed stalks and weeds that can be hard to pull out if left unattended. Eden recommends keeping a height of 1 to 2 inches of Carpetgrass to prevent producing seed heads.
- Avoid using herbicides as Carpetgrass is sensitive to most herbicides.
- Avoid over-fertilizing the Carpetgrass lawn, or it will lead to a thatch layer (layer of undecomposed grass). The same suggestion applies to watering the grass.
- Make a note of your lawn areas that encounter any pest or fungal lawn disease to apply a preventive application.
