Renovation of compacted turf in conjunction with aerification for greens and tees, around soccer goalmouths and on sports fields: Add 5% by volume to topdressing sand or broadcast after aerification at the topdressing rate.

Topdressing: Add Ormanica at a rate of 10 - 12 lb. per 1,000 ft2 (435 - 525 lb./acre) in the fall and spring as a top-dressing for golf, sports turf and lawns.

Seeding, re-seeding and over-seeding: Use as a mulch on top of seed. Apply 10 - 25 lb. per 1,000 ft2 (435 - 1,085 lb./acre) over entire area to be seeded.

Divot-mixes, green sand, etc: Blend 50 - 150 lb. of Ormanica with 1 ton of sand.

Organic amendment (alternative to peat) for sand based root zone mixes: Ormanica can meet the USGA guidelines for use as an alternative to peat in golf greens construction. Final blends will depend on a number of factors including the physics of the sand selected, however, previous testing has indicated that a 95:5 blend by volume should provide adequate moisture retention without compromising air porosity and drainage.

To meet USGA guidelines, blend Ormanica with sand at 95:5 to 90:10 ratio of Ormanica:sand for the desired root zone mix.
