I planted Philippine carpet grass, may I know what kind of fertilizer to use? some part grew nicely some part not so.. I'm not sure if Its too much water or too little water?

Any one can tell what type of fertilizer and how often to put and how much?

Water every evening after the sun goes down. Or early morning or both, that's all you need to do.

Do you have other plants around? Remove them.

Grass need a lot of sunlight to grow well too.

Patches that are not growing, try loosen the soil. Do not step on the empty patches. step on the grass if you must.

I just put in some really big red palms to block some sun into my dining hall and to cool the place...but that area is growing fine i think because of the sun..the patch that is not growing is at the terrace by the fence..there is some water retention over there..Should I loosen the soil or dig the whole patch and re-level the ground?

These days i only water in the evening around 730pm, i did not water in the morning...I need to water twice? What is the best time to water the grass in the morning? 7am ok? I just hose my grass...am I drowning my grass? Sorry, too many things that I dont know

Help me! A small section of my grass has been invaded by these paddy-like weeds..and they grow really fast..within a week that I was away...I think its the cat bringing these pollens around the garden and pollinating them.

Is there any weed-killer that i can use that wont kill my grass? It's so horrible right now, but just a small patch in currently affected..around 3sqft.

I ask gardener to come n check my grass to see what pesticide that i can use..turns out that those mini paddy-like thing is not weed..its the spores n seedlings of the grass..

I just need to trim my grass only. Did not trim since I planted..

wanchenghuat, he said taiwan grass looks lush and the seedlings grows much faster than Philippines ones..need to trim more often
