Those who have been using this grass in the garden - do you find it any good? Someone I know has laid this on top of a concrete base and when it rains it holds the water and just squelches when it is walked on. Someone else used it with soil as a base, and when they lifted it up it had loads of worms and insects under it. Surely it is the same as if you placed an old carpet out in the garden?

As with any job preparation is the key - it needs a sub base as it has small holes for drainage so laying on concrete isn,t a good idea. I did my daughters back garden as it was like a quagmire when it rained, but now 2 years on it is played on every day by her two lads and they stay clean !!

Lads playing around in the garden stay clean? Wow! Jesus must have come back!
