Hello everyone,

I want to keep it simple and ask if anyone has already looked into the topic of turf in enough detail to recommend a good and affordable supplier or online shop! My landscaping contractor is going to shape the garden in the next few days. The landscaper suggests I should consider sowing the lawn in March. However, if I feel like it, I could also lay turf in early September, right?

And I would always choose sod because the costs are a joke compared to the work involved in sowing the lawn yourself. Of course, you shouldn't buy it from the pharmacy.

Then your landscape gardener should change the soil; check the garden topic here. After 16 days, the lawn is growing perfectly on my area at the back, the soil really seems to be excellent.
On my upper area, there was a lot of weed in the soil, so I applied fresh soil, leveled it, sprayed it thoroughly, and then seeded it.

If you don’t want to waste thousands of liters of drinking water, both rolled sod and seed grass will end up looking equally brown in the end.

the professionally prepared soil plus the topsoil has only produced weeds instead of grass
That usually happens with sod in the second year.
However, the landscaping contractor alone is not to blame; most of the time it’s a matter of budget, and no substrate is applied, only roughly screened soil.

It depends entirely on the maintenance.

@Lumpi_LE You can also use rainwater and don’t have to use drinking water...

The preparation work is the same. Sowing takes 60 minutes. Watering is done through an irrigation system. So what? I don’t see any extra work...
