Thanks for the response. They love chilli. I dare say they'd like garlic too!
I came across this yesterday:

I purchased it from Bunnings last night.…

Hi all, it's that time of year when the galahs obliterate my front and back lawn. Being a lawn fanatic, of course it's lush, thick and green. It's Emerald Kikuyu…

I've had excellent success with Emerald Kikuyu aka "AZ-1 Kikuyu".
Seeded the backyard about 3 years ago. Used Kentucky Bluegrass as a mothercrop. The Emerald Kike is at about 75% coverage…

We laid Emerald Kikuyu seed a few years ago. Does not need to be mown often. Doesn't seem to grow high.
Doesn't need much water either!
Great lawn!

Actually, come to think of it I don't use Seasol anymore.
I now use this:

Same thing, just cheaper.

That's exactly the same molasses I use.
In an empty Seasol 2 litre spray container:
- Add about a cm or two (or three) of molasses. Enough to cover the bottom of…

Yeah a top dress wouldn't hurt.
I get my molasses from Greensborough Grain Store. $10 for a 5 litre bucket.
I mix molasses, soluble potash, seasol and powerfeed in an empty 2…

Seasol + Powerfeed + water. Not sure what else you can do.
If you're going to fertilise it, go lightly with something organic.

Wow, Endothal is awesome stuff. Totally destroyed the wintergrass. Kikuyu still going strong. Fu was right - it doesn't affect Kikuyu.

Oh, and I just used less than the recommended amount: about 2ml in a 2 litre sprayer.

Well according to Fu above I just spot sprayed the winter grass with endothal in my kikuyu. Guess we'll see if it kills the kikuyu. Hoping not.

Nara, Zoysia, Palmetto, Sapphire, Buffalo. All the lawn types in my area that are yellow right now.
My Kikuyu: lush, green, thick. Hasn't been mown in 2 months.
With the problems we…

They're all synthetic turf websites.

Fescue, Rye, Kentucky...all destined to perish in the heat of summer. No amount of water will ensure survival, ESPECIALLY where you live. Was it like 44 degrees everyday where you…

Thanks for the reply. Google research tells me they're looking for either worms or seeds.
I might try your tennis ball approach. Thanks!

Every time i see a flock of pink galahs munching away at my lawn i go outside and clap and shoo them away.
What happens when i'm not home?!! I come…

Undertake the following to bring life to your lawn / soil:
Aerate the soil with a pitchfork
Throw on some Bactivate over the lawn. Refer to below link. Send the bloke an…

Good luck. Ive been to so many Bunnings stores that i've given up. No Bunnings store i ever visited stocked this stuff. I would even bring up the product as…

You'd struggle to keep any lawn variety green during sustained periods of 40c regardless of how much soil prep was undertaken. I'd like to be proven wrong on this -…

I usually cover the bottom of the 2l spray pack with about a cm or two of molasses. Mix it with a bit of warm water then add the seasol…

Pull the weeds out by hand. Its really not that hard. Make sure you pull the roots out too. You'll soon work out the correct technique.
I spent an afternoon pulling…
