priced infield mixes. |

areas and install these bricks.

| ZeoPro™
BLENDS: ZeoPro is an enhanced Zeolite originally developed
for use in the NASA Space Program, Because of its high cation
exchange capacity, ZeoPro is able to attach nutrient cations
to its crystal structure and because of its patented nutrient
delivery system, ZeoPro is able to deliver those nutrients
slowly over time as the turf needs them. The result is the
ability to get better turf performance with less use of
fertilizer and a reduced amount of nutrient leaching unwanted
to ground and surface waters. We blend ZeoPro with 1mm
topdressing sand to provide the dual benefits and value that
each provide. Read more about
Zeopro here. |
CUSTOM
BLENDED TOP DRESSINGS: The time tested practice of
topdressing will always be high on the cultural practice list
and read customs soils can custom blend any mix of Sand, Soil,
and Soil Amendments to help you amend or maintain your turf.
