Can I lay turf on this?


Can I lay turf on this soil in its current condition?

There is gravel mixed in, more gravel as you go deeper down.

I live in Scotland where it doesn't get super hot in summer.

    If the soil is very hard I’d recommend you use a tiller to break it up and make it softer/fluffy so that grass roots can penetrate it easily.

    If it is quite soft you can do this since it is not a big area

    Can’t see why it would be an issue, but maybe try and get the rocks out before they’re mixed in with turf. Garden sieve might help?
