Weather is averaging 18 degrees a day here so maybe wasn't watering enough!

Are Nordies allowed to buy fertiliser now? I'm not sure that should be encouraged.

Had mine done a couple of years ago as I don’t have a green finger nor the interest in it since spending many childhood summers mowing lawns for £2 a go so I could go to LR ..

Anyhow, I used a crowd form D12, Hamptons iirc. Had to get them back as they didn’t secure it/pin it down so first bit or Autumn breeze and it lifted. I opted for a thicker/deeper astro which I kind of regret a little, should have went for a ‘shorter cut’.

I'm doing it next month, got some free samples from artificalgrass.ie and picked one from that, had to lay them out on the grass facing different directions as they look completely different depending on the direction they're having.

When you say patio tiles, do you mean patio slabs? 

You can get rust remover in most decent DIY places.
