For the RTF you need 4kg/100m2, I paid R1 035 for 5kg.
I've used just over 4kg to seed the lawn because I had to reseed a section where I moved a sprinkler. The remainder will be used to fill in gaps.

Look up Grasses and Greens supplies in Edenvale.
They supply all their seeds.
They are legit.
Thank you. Please give us more feedback as time goes before I pull the trigger. I might have about 500sqm to do at the end.

I currently have a team on site to plant some grass. It's a patch that used to be in the shade, but after clearing the brush a bit, it's getting some good sun.
Everything I tried in the past didn't really help, so here's hoping.

They do deliveries, not sure about the price.
Cool. I will probably go there to see what else they have on offer and more advice.

Spot on bra. Spot on!!! That looks sweet AF.
Did you deal with Sharon at Grasses & Greens?
I see I'm going to struggle with the bermuda that is popping up everywhere, fortunately there is a big difference in how it looks so will be able to pull it out by hand. Should maybe have done a roundup to kill it off completely before doing the new seed. The problem is I did not want to lose another 4 weeks, and the current weather is perfect for this grass.
Bad/stupid idea to aerate ground will a drill? Not sure if a spike roller will be effective on a "concrete" ground. Watered a slightly slopy ground and some parts are still hard.
It might take me 8 years to aerate 200sqm with a drill. I tried a few spots and took me a few minutes to cover just 1sqm

On fire.
Digging through roots with a hand shovel for 3 hours to find a leaking solenoid only to find the it's not there.
Why the F*** would you install a solenoid underground. Now I have to dig up my new grass and follow the comms cable to who knows where.

Nooit wtf. Who would put a solenoid by the sprayer? Does not make sense
Speaking of. I have one that is leaky at home. I use a simple tuyu/smartlife-based 4-channel/zone unit. No Rainbird or Hunter fancy systems.

How are everyone's lawns doing? We need some decent penetrating rain.
The mofo warthogs got inside. Can't tell where. Checked them on the camera chowing away at the one Protea plant and another 2 fscking up the grass. Moeeere.
Holiday home atm.
