Why is TifTuf Grass the Top Choice for Drought Tolerance?

Stories, Uncategorized

From the heart of Australia’s landscaping industry, StrathAyr brings you insights into the Smart Approved Water Mark and why TifTuf lawn is an unrivalled choice for drought tolerance.

Understanding the Smart Approved Water Mark

The smart approved Water Mark is a label of excellence in water conservation awarded to products and services that significantly reduce water use. It’s a benchmark for water efficiency, particularly relevant in Australia’s often harsh and dry climate.

Why TifTuf Bermuda Grass Stands Out

TifTuf grass is a game-changer in drought tolerance and water efficiency. Here’s why it’s the top choice for Australian landscapes.

  1. Exceptional Drought Tolerance: TifTuf Bermuda grass, developed after extensive research, is renowned for its incredible drought resistance. It requires, on average, 38% less water than other varieties, making it a sustainable choice for Australian landscapes.
  2. Rapid Establishment: One of the remarkable features of TifTuf turf is its ability to establish roots quickly, in less than 14 days and much faster than other varieties. This rapid establishment reduces the need for extensive watering, further enhancing its water efficiency.
  3. Versatility and Durability: TifTuf lawn is known for its durability, making it suitable for various settings, from domestic yards to commercial spaces and sporting fields. Its resilience in different environments makes it a top choice for Australian landscapes.

Sustainable Landscaping with TifTuf Bermuda Grass

In an era where sustainability is key, choosing TifTuf Bermuda grass for your landscaping needs is a step towards a greener future. Its low water requirement aligns perfectly with Australia’s growing need for water conservation, making it an environmentally responsible choice.

TifTuf lawn reduces your bills by consuming less water and less fertiliser. TifTuf only requires 1/4 the amount of fertiliser compared to other warm-season grass varieties and supports preserving our precious resources. By opting for TifTuf turf, you’re creating a beautiful landscape and contributing to a sustainable environment, ensuring that the natural beauty of Australia is preserved for future generations.

Can I Lay Instant Turf in the Heat of Australian Summer?

Stories, Uncategorized

During the hot Aussie summers, a common question is: “Can I lay instant turf during this season?” The answer is a resounding yes and this StrathAyr blog guides you through the process, ensuring your grass turf thrives even in the summer heat.

The Summer Turf Laying Process

Laying instant turf in summer can be incredibly beneficial. The warm weather accelerates the establishment process of your new rollout turf. Typically, a new instant lawn can be established in just two to three weeks during summer, which is half the time it usually takes in colder conditions.

Key Tips for Laying Instant Turf in Summer

Regular Watering

The most crucial factor for the successful rollout turf installation in summer is regular watering. Your new rollout will need to be watered four to five times a day for at least 15 to 30 minutes each time. This frequent, light watering keeps the turf damp, promoting rapid growth and establishment.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep an eye on the weather conditions. Windy days can dry out your turf faster, so it may require more frequent watering. After about three weeks or once the turf is firmly rooted and cannot be easily lifted, you can gradually reduce the watering frequency. Once your turf is established, less frequent, deeper watering is recommended. This encourages the roots to grow deeper and helps improve drought tolerance, making it better equipped to deal with tough dry conditions.

Avoid Common Mistakes

Ensure the ground is free from debris before laying your turf. Apply a starter fertiliser to provide essential nutrients and Turf is highly perishable and needs to be installed the day that it is received. Also, make sure the turf is laid flat without overlapping and give it good water immediately after laying.
