Get Green Grass Early This Spring with Endurant

Mar 08, 2021
Transition from winter to spring a bit sooner with the help of Endurant turf grass pigments. Endurant Turf Enhancer and Endurant Flex can help your grass green up a bit sooner, for earlier rounds of golf, the best lawn on the block, a picture perfect wedding or more sod sales. For achieving greener grass earlier this spring, Endurant provides two pigment options that are well suited for the transition from winter dormancy to spring's actively growing grass. These include Endurant Turf Enhancer (TE) and Endurant Flex (FX). Endurant TE is a pigment made especially for actively growing grass that has existing chlorophyll in the leaf blade. Endurant FX is a hybrid pigment and paint combination made specifically for transitions, such as transitioning between grass species (for example in the practice of overseeding, transitioning between bermuda and rye grass) as well as transitioning between seasons. It's effective with less existing chlorophyll in the grass than when TE is recommended. This recommendation isn't so much about coverage as it is about achieving the most natural look. Endurant is known and trusted by professionals for providing the most natural look and lasting color that will remain either until mowed off or after fading very naturally and on tone. (lasting up to three months, depending on rate of growth and frequency of mowing) [caption id="attachment_1012" align="aligncenter" width="501"]Endurant TE Endurant TE is a pigment that can be used as an indicator dye, can be applied regularly with other applications to build color slowly and continually during turfgrass growth, or can be applied for instantly boosting turf color, including for early spring time green.[/caption]

Achieving Early Spring Green-up Using Endurant TE

Endurant Turf Enhancer (TE) is a pigment that works especially well on actively growing grass that has some natural chlorophyll in the plant. TE can be effective by not only providing the extra green pigment on the grass blade, but also that pigment may modestly draw heat, increasing the plant's natural chlorophyll production as well. Endurant TE is not recommended for fully dormant turf. For fully dormant, brown turfgrass that is not actively growing at all, consider an option from Endurant's full line of paints, which are particularly well-suited for dormant grass and matching various turf grass species where more coverage is desired. These include colors named Endurant Fairway (FW), Perennial Rye (PR) and Premium (P+). If the grass is just beginning to spring back to life and you want to boost it sooner but there isn't much chlorophyll, you may like to "Flex Your Turf," using Endurant Flex.

Flex Your Turf for Early Spring Time Green Grass

Endurant Flex (FX) is a pigment and paint hybrid that works particularly well during transitions. Flex is ideal for transitioning between grass species, such as during the overseed process of going between Bermuda and rye grass. Flex also works well when transitioning between seasons and growing phases, such as when turfgrass is going out of dormancy into actively growing grass. Spring time, similar to fall, may be one of the best times of year to use Endurant Flex. Flex is recommended to be used when grass still has some chlorophyll or is beginning to get chlorophyll again. It is one of the most economical, ecological and effective choices for transitioning.

Want More Full Coverage from a Paint Instead of a Pigment?

If you don't expect natural chlorophyll from the plant any time soon, consider a paint instead of a pigment or instead of the hybrid. Endurant grass paints are ideal for dormant turf, off color turf or when you just want to create an even, picture perfect look and desire a particular shade of green that isn't being achieved with the natural grass. Like the pigments, paints may add a couple degrees of heat to the surface, just enough to not only have the extra color of the paint, but also to boost the plant's natural chlorophyll in the spring transition. This guide may help you select your color of Endurant. Endurant grass pigments and paints are the professional's top choice. No other brand is so trusted as to take a football team through the Super Bowl or a televised PGA event. So whether it's for sod, your lawn, a golf course, athletic field, farm or municipal land, Endurant can provide the boost in color for a natural looking green.
