Hi I'm new to this site. I'm looking for some help. hope im in the right place.
We had a new turf put down last Monday watered as instructed once in evening, but as youll remember we hit a very hot few days the ground was dry even with watering and the turf began dying so I began heavily watering morning and night 6 days on my turf is 90% back to life and looking lovely but still a few stubborn edges where it suffered the worst that are brown but definitely improving so i have no worries there.
Now im facing a new issue ive noticed a fair few blades of grass now have brown tips. The lawn hasnt been walked on or cut whats causing this any help would be greatly appreciated i spent alot of money on this garden so need a fix !

The turf has only been down about 10 days so it's far too early to start worrying about its growth and some brown shoots. The rain we've had over the past few days will certainly help it to establish.
The brown tips will be from the dry weather and they will all disappear like magic the first time you cut it!
Just keep on top of the watering till then.
