High Permeability Turfsoil (R)

SUITABLE FOR:
• High Use Lawns & Grass Areas
• Lawns with fast drainage requirements
• Lawns & Grass areas requiring a compaction resistant rootzone

Our High Permeability Turfsoil (R) has been designed for high-use lawns and grass areas where a soil with fast drainage and good structural properties are required. The fast-draining nature of this Turfsoil is confirmed by a total sand content of 92%, predominantly medium sand (0.25-0.50mm), and a saturated hydraulic conductivity, recorded under a degree of consolidation of 276mm/hr.

Laboratory testing further confirms that Bury Hill’s High Permeability Turfsoil (R) is adequately supplied with organic matter and most major plant nutrients with the exception of total nitrogen, which can be remedied by a routine fertiliser application.

Please note that high sand content soils typically have good aeration, fast drainage and compaction resistant properties but generally exhibit reduced water and nutrient retention capacities. Therefore it will be important that your lawn is suitably maintained with regards to seasonal fertiliser applications and irrigation.

If you require a soil with an initial higher level of nitrogen and a slower rate of drainage, you may wish to consider our Lawn Topsoil (PL).

To address the low nitrogen, our soil scientist recommends applying and incorporating the pre-seeding grass fertiliser: ICL Sportsmaster Pre Seeder.
