Handmade green carpet: how to prepare turf for the future turf by yourself
This post outlines a step-by-step guide on how to prepare a handmade green carpet for yourself. It covers the different materials and tools needed, and how to measure and cut the material to perfectly fit the size and shape of your lawn. With this method, you can create your own durable and lush green turf, which will be easy to maintain. By constructing your own carpets, you will be able to save time, energy, and money, and guarantee a long-lasting and attractive result.
Turf pieces ready for planting are available for sale. Usually use special types of grass for this purpose. But you can also use your old lawn to create a lawn. For this, 2-3 days before removing the layer of turf, the meadow should be mowed, and the day – watered. Pieces should have the same size (25-30 cm x 1 m) and a thickness of 4-5 cm (along with the roots, the soil is also removed).
The grass cover is notched on four sides of the turf layer, then it is removed by helping with a shovel. After that the resulting pieces of turf are laid in the same way as ordinary rolled or chunky turf.

Preparing a turf for future use, especially for making a handmade green carpet, requires careful steps. First, survey the area and remove any existing vegetation, rocks, or debris. Next, cultivate the soil by tilling it to a depth of 6-8 inches, removing any clumps. Ensure proper drainage by grading the area away from buildings. Test and adjust soil pH levels if necessary. Add organic matter like compost or peat moss to improve soil quality. Rake the surface evenly to create a smooth base. Before laying the turf, moisten the soil to facilitate root development. Install the turf promptly, ensuring all edges are tightly fitted. Press down on the turf to ensure good soil contact. Finally, water the newly laid turf regularly, keeping it moist until roots become established. Avoid excessive traffic on the turf until it is fully established. With proper care, your handmade green carpet will thrive.
