One of grass types which can grow easily and has low maintenance is elephant grass (Gajah Mini). The maintenance is more simple if you compare with other grasses such as Golf grass or Japanese grass. Gajah Mini can grow and spread over your yard very quickly and there is no need to cut it off often, especially if they got full sunshine.

4) Spread the seedling in small size +/- 3 to 5 cm and plant it until its root is covered by the soil. Plant in zig-zag pattern.
5) Plant the grass in ideal distance between 8 x 8 cm, however if you want it grow faster, then, plant it in closer distance.
6) Press it softly to let the root stick into the soil and not easily moved.
7) Watering should be done twice a day, in the morning and in the afternoon especially during dry season and it’s suggested to use water container or soft spraying to prevent the root to be separated from the soil.
8) Fertilizing can start 2 weeks after the grass has been planted to give nutrients to grow. The grass needs 46% urea, 0.5 kg for 10 m2. Mix the urea with water and spray it to the grass.
