This week at Tillers Turf, the big topic is the weather. We’ve had an exceptionally warm and dry start to spring, creating real challenges for turf growers across the UK. But as always, our brilliant team is more than up for it.
In this episode of Turf Talk, we join Gav and Ed out in the fields at first light, pulling out irrigators and connecting miles of pipework to keep our turf well watered. With 18 pumps running and nonstop teamwork, it’s a massive effort to keep things green and growing.
We also check in on newly prepared fields for reseeding and take a look at turf ready for collection. Plus, there’s advice for anyone laying turf this summer. Remember, you’re usually allowed to water it for 28 days even during a hosepipe ban, though it’s always best to check with your local authority.
Thanks for tuning in and we’ll see you next week!
