    So how does it work when it rains? In the video it kind of looks like the concrete is at an angle so that would be sufficient from making puddles, but what if your concrete is on a flat surface? And if your concrete is at an angle, when it does rain, wouldnt all that sand just wash off underneath? Because it is technically on a smooth surface?

    What’s the purpose of spraying triple washed sands and also when the turf gets dirty or too dusty, is there a way to clean them? Can we hose them down?

    What about pet urine? I have a front yard that’s all concrete, and I am concerned about the urine crystallizing and dealing with a permanent bad odor.

    What is the border at the sidewalk edge? Looks like metal... something to stop the edge from fraying / coming up in that high-traffic area. I am looking to put grass on my driveway, but trying to figure out the best solution to transition from sidewalk to grass on driveway. Thanks.

    Theres no drainage in that and underlay , so it will be hard , have puddles when it rains and not last ?

    hi i want to lie artificial grass down on top of concreate is there a under lining i need to put down first, cause i lied down artificial grass squares and when it rained it was really wet when i lifted them there was worms under them and the ground was soaking even though the grass has drainage holes in them

      If lying on flat concrete than air drainers should be applied which is a kind of underlay with Square air holes.... This keeps the artificial grass slightly off the concrete and allow the rainwater underneath it to evaporate easier so that you won't have wet artificial grass for weeks on end.... Ideally also drill some holes on the concrete so that most of the rainwater doesn't sit on the concrete floor for long.

    Shame! Actually this is a problem to install directly to concrete without prepping for any drainage. When it rains, the water collects, and does not run off the concrete. The turf holds in the moisture, and the turf stays soggy for days or weeks, depending on how much sun it gets, in order to dry out. This leads to fungus, mold and mildew!!!! You should saw cut the concrete creating drainage channels and/ or drill many 3/4" holes through the concrete to the sub surface below the concrete.

      The concrete isn’t completely flat, so the water will flow thru the lower side . I use the same method in my side yard.

      I saw someone install some type of grid below the artificial grass. Does that help ? I can imagine that this artificial grass is the same like having a carpet outside and when it rains it retains so much moisture
