Advantages of compost
The value of humified compost results from its ability to restore and stimulate biological activity in the soil.
Advantages of compost for high soil fertility
Advantages of compost for grass
Compost application program on a turf production site results in:
- Intensive growth in the beginning of the season
- Less nitrogen required
- Disease control
- Water retention
- Sod resilience
Intensive growth in the beginning of the season
Less Nitrogen
Nitrogen is usually applied every 3-4 weeks. However, when compost is used this practice is carried out every 2-3 month. This means two applications less after each seeding.
Moisture retention
Sod resilience requires abundant root system with minimum soil sticking to the roots. «We don’t want to lose soil.» When less soil sticks to roots turf is going to establish faster and use less water.
Sod resilience
Our success in sod resilience buildup brings our clients back to us. Now compost is the part of the soil, which sticks to roots and is beneficial for growth and reduces water needs.
Comparison of a program with compost application and a traditional program without compost
Compost improves water holding capacity of the soil and is able to retain for times more water.
