I was advised (to save cost), don't buy grasses to cover exactly the size to be turfed. This means for 200 sqr feet of land, no need buy 100 pieces of 2 sqr feet grass patch. Just buy maybe a quarter of that quantity and place/grow them with some spacing from each other. Sooner or later they will creep to cover the empty spot. How true is this?

I was qouted rm1.80 per 2 sqrfeet for taiwan grass in sg buloh. Is there a formula to find out the growth time to cover the whole lawn based on the lawn size and total grass patch sizes?

For my case, I wish to grass up 200sqr feet of lawn. Let's say I buy 100sqrfeet of grass patches, cut 'em up and plant em with equal distance from each other. How many weeks will it take to fully grass-ify my lawn?

Hmm.. in dilema know. I'm in the middle of renovating my house interiors. From the look of it, I should initiate grass planting now so that it will be in "full bloom" in months.

But I'm scared I have no time to water them everyday due to work, and also the reno workers definitely gonna step on them.

You just pull my words right out of my brain.

Well my "1st phase" plan would be turfing my porch with grass , and putting in some hexagonal blocks as paths right to my doorstep. Well uhmm nearly half my porch are cemented. If I have more budget, I would wish to apply wooden flooring to cover it and buy some nice wooden table and chairs and put outside, so I can hang out and sipping my cool coffee.

Would really want to dig a small pond too, but I'm waiting for my thumb to turn green.
