The Benefits of using Root zone:
  • Divot filling on race courses and polo pitches
  • This is perfect for top dressing on playing fields, race courses and polo pitches and other amenity operations.
  • Compost delivers natural plant fertilisers which are slow releasing over three years. Therefore reducing the need for artificial fertiliser.
  • Sterile product so no weed seeds or pathogens present
  • Improved water holding in light soils so less irrigation required
  • Reduced nutrient leaching
  • Helps improve soil structure leading to better aeration
How to use Root Zone:
  1. Top dressing on recreation pitches, golf courses and race courses from 20 to 100 tons to the acre
  2. Divots used for filling individual holes
  3. Turf laying used under turf to promote quick rooting and reducing the need for long term watering
  4. Lawns superb for top dressing lawns after aeration in the autumn, adds fertility over many years and improves drainage
Care must be taken with some ericaceous plants such as Camelias, rhodedendrons etc. Composts above 6.5 pH will adversely affect the growth of plants requiring an acid soil. However a lower rate of compost can be used e.g. 15% by volume as long as the other component in the mix are not alkaline over pH7.
