Not the silly "sharp" sand stuff, proper old school lawn sand with nice iron and nitrogen sulphates...

I can find 25kg bags by the pallet, but struggling with just good old fashioned bulk bags. Even the likes of Pitchcare only seem to do it by the ikkle bag frown

Why not ask the greenkeeper at your local golf club where he gets it from?

Countryside.... we don't get golf clubs out here hehe


Good idea though.... there are a handful of larger estates, they probably have an idea or two.

That's the stuff, but if I buy by the retail bag I'll be here forever, and broke! Thinking more of pallet or dumpybag delivery of a couple of tons.... hmm, this is going to take a smidge more research.

'Ello stranger, what are you doing here? hehe

Topdressing will go on afterwards, ought to do the sand first. Good supplier though.
