growing kikuyu
9 SEPTEMBER, 2017
Our sandy backyard has been mulched for 18 months now, and it came time to plant some grass seed. The mulch had turned into semi decent soil and with the help of the chicken's manure it was fertile enough for the grass seed to sprout. It was spread in the last two weeks of winter - just warm enough to get going - and I've used non treated Kikuyu seed and fertiliser from Bunnings :)) Turns out it makes for a very soft, vibrant green lawn.
