    Good morning everyone. We laid some turf last month which adjoins the older grassed area. I’ve cut the older section for the first time yesterday, but, I’ve left the new turfed area meantime. Just wondering if anyone can advise when to cut the new section and treat, if treatment is advisable?
    The new turf looks to be bedding in and there’s new growth. Advice most welcome. Thanks all.

    Grab the turf and give it a gentle pull to see if it lifts if it doesn't it good to go with cutting. Only give it a light trim for the first few cuts . No feeding is required for new turf for some time yet.
