See the difference. The right portion has lucious growth, green and broad leaves while the other area is washed out. This is because pearl grass cant stand direct sunlight. The right side is in a shady area of my house. There's basically a vertical line separating the two grass conditions.

Do anyone manure/ apply fert to their carpet grass ?

The maintain the lawn is really timing consuming compare to set it up.

Carpet grass easy to plat, lay it and pad it. Gao tim.

This is pearl grass?

Of course. What make you think carpet grass need not to fertilize?

Last time i check at Sg Buloh nurseries they're selling it at RM6/sqft. By far the most expensive type of grass being sold here.

I used to have 3000 sf of pearl grass. They thrived under full sun, but needed lots of water, mostly twice a day to do well under full sun. The roots are very shallow, and they dry up real fast! Even hen pecking can cause uprooting of the grass. The only advantage is they tolerate shade better than zoysia.

grass is watered every morning/late night unless it rains for the first month
now alternate day watering and if it rains, we will just leave it

I am facing the same issue just like you
How do you solve the problem?

Hi All sifu,

After one month ++ of planting, some part of my Japanese grass turn into brown.
Do I need to remove all the brown and dying grass and finally let the soil expose to sunlight (means botak)?
or I just need to trim the brown grass become shorter?

Thank you.

Grass planting project at my new house. Location Sungai Petani Kedah

Step 1 - Remove weeds and leftover stone.





Step 2 - Put fine sand and do leveling. After that, I spray weed killer and leave it for a few days.

I put full for right and half for left because I will put tiles and do awning at the remaining of left side. I need around 3 yards of sand and it cost me RM55 x 3 = RM165

It does not totally kill all weeds i think due to rain season.





Step 3 - Bought pearl grass at Bukit Mertajam, cost me RM2 per 2 x 1 feet including send it to my house.

I bought 260 pieces for right side (80 x 7). The grass a bit dirty because rain almost everyday here. I put at the right side first.



Step 4 - Install it myself. Took me around 3 hours, really gave pain to my back





Cost
- Fine sand RM55 x 3 = RM165
- Grass RM2 x 260 = RM520 (right)
- Grass RM2 x 170 = RM340 (left)

I havent put at the left side, afraid it cant survive during renovation work, workers will step on it. I will update the result after a week
