Turning over soil is a time tested way to improve turf growing conditions, as it helps promote airflow, chop and kill weeds, and it allows you to mix in organic materials like lime, fertilizers, and gypsum to achieve the ideal pH balance.<\/p><p>For soft sandy soil, use a rotary tiller to turn over the soil.<\/p><p>For harder, clay-like soils, use a rotary hoe. They are better-equipped to mix more hard-wearing soil textures.<\/p><p><strong><u>Consider hosing down the area before you turn over or remove your existing soil to help soften it up a bit.<\/u><\/strong><\/p><p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><strong>If you have no top layer soil &#8211;<\/strong><\/p><p>You\u2019ll need to choose the right soil type for your lawn.<\/p><p>Which one is right for you? That will depend on the level of sun exposure, shade, the local climate, and other factors like surrounding trees and greenery in your area. For the best advice on choosing soil types, <a href=\"https:\/\/aviewturf.com.au\/contact-us\/\">contact A View Turf<\/a> today.<\/p><p>Once you\u2019ve chosen the right soil type, use a rake to spread the soil evenly. The soil should be about 20mm to 30mm deep. This way, the turf will be level with (or slightly lower than) the surrounding paving, thus making it easier to mow and walk across safely.<\/p><p>If the soil is not deep enough, bring in some extra soil like a good quality sandy loam (80 percent sand, 20 percent soil). Sandy loam will also help the surface be more level and free-draining.<\/p><p>If the soil is too sandy, apply some well-broken down organic mix, so the soil can hold nutrients and soil more easily.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fbf93dc elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"fbf93dc\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Step 3 \u2013 Level the soil and do final touch-ups<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b3f6b1a elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"b3f6b1a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Continue to rake the soil until the surface is even.<\/p><p>You may need to use a roller to make the soil firm, but try to do so without compacting it. Strive for a smooth consistency, without any lumps or bumps, so that none of these imperfections show up in the final work.<\/p><p>If laying the turf in hot weather, do not water the ground straight away. Wait until sundown or prior to sunrise, when the surface is cooler, so that you can water the surface without damaging it.<\/p><p>Lastly, lightly sprinkle starter fertilizer over the top layer soil,
