Grass lenght on pitch

[Bingo]

A brighter picture.
51 bales altogether they're saying.

Isn't it amazing how quick a place falls into disrepair. Not even the grass itself but the surrounds etc. The places looks like no-one stepped foot in it this years.

I suppose you want me to buy one and bring it with me as well?

If you keep the receipt i'll get you your money at the next committee meeting.

Not at all. I wouldn't dream of charging. Would you like me to bring beer?

I look after our pitch and it costs us approx £4k-£5k a year on maintenance, this consists of about 5-6 applications of fertilizer a year, at least one spray for weeds, 2no verti draining or ground breaking, direct seedind if and when it needs it, scarifying if and when. Then of course you have the 2-3no cuts per week of the grass and the maintenance of the mower and the diesel too.

We are having problems at the minute with rabbits digging holes in the pitch and we have tried everything from ferrets, dogs, guns and still the we bastids are destroying the pitch. Every time i replace a sod they start trying to dig the sod out again...I intentionally keep our grass a bit longer than it should be as we don't have a training pitch and our pitch gets an awful amount of abuse with the teams we have all on the one pitch...so for wear and tear it's better at 50mm-60mm

We have terrible problems with worms on our pitch!
I shit you not!
The come to the surface and bring up loads of little mounds of soil.
Overtime it makes the pitch really bumpy and uneven.
we cant seem to get rid of the problem at all,.

Are you sure it's not leather jackets (Daddy longlegs larve)

Im not, tbh

All i know is we have had many's a  long discussion at committee meetings about worms 

They bring up thousands of small mounds to the surface leaving it very bobbly and



This should help sort out your problem
