Ecograss sold at fair. Rm350 for 1 x 4 meters. 20mm pile thickness
*
May I know which fair is this ?

Have you manage to install yet ?

I recently purchased a roll to the brand is aces turf or something and mine's a 30mm pile

price for 1 * 2 M is around 180+

they have 2 versions one is from china which is a lot more cheaper and another is Australia as what they said which is the one I bought above.

here's my DIY install after wathing a lot of youtube install guide, a lot of planning and working on it for around 2 weeks ( only work on it during weekends )

I'm still having issue finding some 6 " nails for some part where the top layer soil used was a bit deep thus the nail I'm using doesnt properly stick .. I used galvanized nails those that are used for roofing.

Do you know where can I get 6" nails?

care to share youre install?

btw ignore the green gel .. those are pet get deterrent gel to avoid neighboring pets using my grass as thier new toilet .. before that they were constantly using it as their toilet and I had to clean up almost daily ..

Since I DIY'ed based on youtube guide they said to nail it to the soil so that it sits in place.

ermm in my case, I manage to break the habit of the cats

Nowadays all the cats just pass by and doesnt do thier thing anymore..

I bought the repellent (cant remember the brand in my head now) at the pet shop at mines .. I asked which was the recommended.

I bought 2 bottles of different type. One is spray and another is gel.. the gel last longer ( a couple of days ) but the spray was stronger. On top of that I added a chicken fence ( got the tip from this link - http://winkypedia.net/2011/03/11/how-to-st...n-your-garden/)

I initially put both brands together on top of the grass and toped up spray daily.

After a week or so up till today none of the cats came to poo at my yard anymore.
