Use the following formula to determine the amount of Turface to incorporate into the skinned infield mix. Infields should be amended at 15% to 20% by volume, 4 inches deep.
Turface tons required = area x depth of incorporation (in inches) x desired % of Turface (20% = 0.2)/667
For example: To determine the amount of TURFACE required to amend an infield skinned area of 9000 sq. ft. at a depth of 4 inches at 20% volume:
9000 x 4 x 0.2/667 = 10.8 tons of TURFACE
Works well as a potting soil additive

Surface provide structure and porosity similar to perlite but without the unfortunate tendency of perlite to float to the surface of the soil when water is added. Potting soil for plants that will not be repotted for a considerable time must have structure (presence of additives that don't break down) and retain its ability to be porous so that air can penetrate.

I use Turface for amending potting soil and for making a succulent soil mix. Was always buying small baggies until I found this site. Good price on the Turface plus free shipping! Best deal on the Internet. Got the Turface in about 4 days. I'll order from this site again.

Turface has some products that are as fine as dust. I'm looking for the one that is 1-2mm granules.
The particle size of the Turface Athletics MVP ranges from about 0.42mm to 3.3mm.

Can I use this before seeding centipede and other areas of yard that hold water? I'm trying to solve some clay issues too I live on an island and have to rely on rainwater for both my cabin and yard
Yes, Turface Athletics MVP can be used before reseeding your lawn. It is recommended that you till the area and use the Turface Athletics MVP first. You are able to reseed right after this application has been done.

I live in Montana and my clay soil is suffocating my lawn causing it to die. I need help right away to turn the tide.
Since Turface Athletics MVP is not labeled to be used on residential lawns, only athletic fields, we cannot advise on the best timing for an application. We recommend contacting your local extension office for advise on when the best time is to apply soil conditioners in your area. The local extension office is located in your county and great resource for specific products, procedures and conditions for your area.
