ATHLETIC FIELDS
Bio-Flex®
is valuable as an amendment to the top soil at the time of establishment
or as a top dressing for established athletic fields. The addition of
Bio-Flex at the time of establishment speeds germination and adds to a
more rapid development of new seed and Bio-Flex added to the top soil
greatly speeds the rooting of new sod.
The all natural ingredients of Bio-Flex
allows for top dressing applications to be made while athletic fields
are in use, which proves to be a valuable addition to normal
fertilization programs.
Using
Bio-Flex®
at The Time of Establishment
When using Bio-Flex at the time
of establishment, it is suggested that it be applied following the
placing of the topsoil over the subgrade. The recommended application
rate is 100# per 1,000 square feet with the Bio-Flex being nail dragged
or tilled into the top 3-4 inches of the topsoil along with your
selected starter fertilizer. The addition of Bio-Flex speeds germination
and adds to a more rapid development of new seed. Following seeding, the
newly seeded area should be kept moist through regular irrigation
procedures.
The sodding of dirt or sand-based
athletic fields using Bio-Flex greatly speeds the rooting and
establishment of the new sod. Bio-Flex applied at the rate of 50# per
1,000 square feet and nail dragged into the top 3-4 inches of the top
soil stimulates improved root growth and development allowing for rapid
establishment and quicker use of the facility. As in the case of new
seed, thorough watering of the newly sodded area is essential to the
development of a healthy turf.
Established Athletic Fields

compliment or booster for a regular fertilization program or works well
on its own, and it's all natural ingredients permits its use during
competitive seasons without fear of harm to the participants. The
benefits of Bio-Flex as a top dressing on established fields is enhanced
if done following core or deep tine aerification.
The aerification and application of
Bio-Flex may be done in either the fall or spring of the year and may be
done in conjunction with overseeding of the field. Following
aerification, it is recommended that Bio-Flex be applied at a rate of
50# per 1,000 square feet. Adequate water should be applied for several
days following application.
