Flooded Lawns & Turf: Causes, Symptoms and Fast Fixes

Dr. Russell Sharp takes a deep dive into flooding and waterlogging across gardens, farms and sports turf—explaining causes like clay pans and heavy rain, the physiological damage to roots and crops, common symptoms such as patchy chlorosis and shallow rooting, and secondary risks like nutrient loss and pathogen spread. The episode also covers practical treatments and prevention: why you shouldn’t work wet soil, mechanical drainage and mole ploughing, liming and gypsum, organic matter and mycorrhizae, plus Utrema’s liquid gypsum solution that can improve drainage without digging—useful for lawns, golf courses, allotments and arable land. https://eutrema.co.uk/shop/soil-conditioners/liquid-gypsum/
