    Tricky time of year to lay turf ... can you not delay until the autumn?

    Lots of good advice here https://www.rhs.org.uk/advice/profile?PID=410 

    I would use Fish, Blood and Bone fertiliser. 


    Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.





  • I agree with Dove it is not the best time to lay your turf, but if you must the only tip

    I  would give is to water it well every evening this will help it set really well.
