Farm to front lawn: Endurant gets sod to market faster

Mar 22, 2017
Sod farmers are getting their sod to market faster using Endurant turf colorants to give turfgrass a boost of green during the transition from winter to spring. The benefits of Endurant are immediate, lasting and applicable year-round for cool season and warm season grasses. Endurant gets the sod to the market faster and makes sod last longer, adding more sales potential and decreasing waste of otherwise browning grass at retail centers.

Top benefits reported by sod farmers using Endurant turf color enhancers:

  • Endurant adds color for an early advantage when grass is semi dormant, coming out of winter dormancy.
  • Endurant darkens fields slightly to add some heat for earlier springtime green-up.
  • Sod farmers and retailers gain more sales time by getting sod to market sooner.
  • Sod stays at the garden centers longer due to lasting green grass color despite being rolled or stacked, reducing sod loss and waste for farmers, retailers and customers.

You are likely to see sod that is powered by Endurant turf color enhancers at Home Depot, Lowe's and other garden centers
