Re: Dogs and Yellow Grass

40m2 minimum - ouch! I only need about 8m2 to do the slope. So much for a good bargain.

Maybe I'll try to grow my own turf squares... I have lots of seedling trays, I may just start grass seed in those. If it works, I'd end up with squares of 40x60 for transplanting. It would look pretty patchy at first, but I could seed over to fill in - at least there would be something there strong enough to stand up to the mutts - and keep down the mud.

Ah the joys of gardening with dogs... wouldn't have it any other way, though.
Turfing is much more expensive than seeding and minimum quantity is a problem. I got round that by contacting a local gardening firm. They were quite happy to piggy back my little order onto a bigger landscaping project they were doing somewhere else and they laid the turf. It might be worth calling around.
