How to level a lawn
Lawn in the garden areas has long ceased to existConsider something exotic, like the quirks of a wealthy summer resident. Now it is often satisfied even by people of very modest means. After all, a beautiful green or multicolored lawn is an authentic decoration of the site, it gives the owners and their guests a real aesthetic pleasure. But to make the lawn really dense and beautiful, it is necessary to observe a number of conditions. First of all, the area allocated for it must be level.
Instructions
1
If a piece of land intended for a lawn,small in area and at the same time has only small irregularities in the form of bumps (so-called hillocks), proceed as follows. Break these bumps with a chopper, then evenly distribute the ground with rakes in all directions. Bind the entire area of the plot, carefully crushing the lumps of earth. Then tamp the soil. The easiest way to tamper - if you go many times around the site along and across. In the event that the area of the future lawn is large, try tampering it with a hand roller.
2
Suppose, instead of the tubercles on the site,allocated to the lawn, are hollows (the so-called pits). For a lawn, this is unacceptable, because after the rains there will be stagnant water, because of what the roots of grass may start to rot, which means that an even and beautiful lawn will not please your view. Therefore, pour the soil into these depressions, slightly ramming until they are level with the overall level of the plot. Then, as indicated above, loosen the entire plot with rakes, align and tamp the earth.

After this, either sift the prepared area with seeds of lawn grass, or lay the tape of a roll lawn, carefully adjusting them to each other at the joints. Be sure to pour the lawn after this.

If you find irregularities (for example, holes)on the lawn that already exists, it is not difficult to fix it. For this, first of all, gently remove the top layer of turf, then pour into the pits of the earth, while slightly ramming the soil. Finally, lay the removed layer of turf on top, carefully pour. If the grass in this place is thinner, you can sow seeds of the same variety.
