Ampthill Full Renovation

We were tasked with the complete renovation of this lawn which totalled 180m2 and took approximately 6 weeks to fully establish.

Seed Type:

40% Tetraploid Dwarf Amenity Ryegrass.
60% Dwarf Amenity Ryegrass.

Liquid Feeds:

Bio Stimulant Treatment

Production of amino acids, enzymes, proteins, vitamins and chlorophyll
Assists in the processing of DNA
Involved in seed production and germination
Osmosis
Cell division, elongation, cell wall construction and cell bonding
Translocation of sugars and nutrients plus nitrate processing

Liquid Iron/Seaweed

Harvested from sustainable seaweed beds off Finisterre
Help increase photosynthesis
Produce good turf colour without rapid growth
Increase soil microbial activity to break down organic matter and release nutrients

Top Dressing

Nutrient rich Evergreen compost

Granular Fertiliser

15-5-15 Summer feed applied

Scarification and Preparation

As a relatively newly laid laid only 12 months old, we gave this a light double scarification, to remove the thatch layer and create a quality seed bed.

Seeding and Top Dressing

7kg of new seed was sown and top dressed with nutrient rich compost. A bio stimulant liquid feed was also applied to add nutrients into the existing soil bed.

Cutting and Feed Program

As per normal once the seed was ready to cut, this was conducted on a bi weekly basis to create a dense sward. The liquid feeds were also scheduled over a period of 6 weeks.

Hand over

A final 15-5-15 NPK granular feed was applied to provide 2-3 months of slow release feed.
