Pro's Choice Soil MasterPro's Choice Soil Master Red - This calcined montmorillinite clay has been designed for the sports turf industry. Soil Master is screened to have a smaller, uniform particle size, keeping the particles incorporated in the soil and making it less likely to wash off in the rain. Soil Master contains very little dust per bag and is easier on skin and uniforms because it has been tumbled to reduce sharp edges. It is not abrasive like stone or shale products. Resistance to breakdown keeps it working year after year. The natural wicking ability promotes superior water drainage. Soil Master improves soil structure and prevents excessive compaction. After a rain, play ball quicker and with less effort. Soil Master eliminates puddles and slick spots yet at the same time, it will allow your field to retain moisture to help keep playing surfaces virtually dust free. Recommended 1 1/4 ton per 1000 sq. ft. for dirt areas. Great advantages for turf too! It promotes durable, resilient turf to handle the stresses of sports activity and provides excellent water drainage. Soil Master will reduce compaction and provide needed aeration. Root development will increase and water will be retained in the root zone longer. Recommended 50 lbs. per 200 sq. ft. on turf areas. Forty 50 lb. bags per skid. Prices based on quantity. Priced per skid or bulk truck loads. Call 1-800-355-2335 for more information or quote.
