The Best Turf Colorant To Choose
Wondering which Endurant turf colorant to choose for yourself or for your clients?
Endurant Turf Colorant Line
Endurant turf and landscape colorants are a broad category covering paints and pigments for grass, mulch, palm trees, pine straw and other applications.
All Endurant colorants are made with organic pigments combined with binders for excellent adherence to the surface of a grass blade or mulch or whatever the intended surface.
Endurant Paints
Endurant paints offer full coverage, making them ideal for dormant turf or use anytime and these include Endurant Fairway (FW), Perennial Rye (PR) and Premium (P+). These colorants last about three months, depending on rate of growth, frequency of mowing, weather and other variables.
Endurant Fairway is the boldest and darkest color and often used on warm season grasses. Endurant Perennial Rye is the lightest shade of green and works well on warm season grasses. Premium is in some ways the most versatile with its mid-depth shade of green.
In this video, Robin Wicker of Geoponics shares a bit about each of the Endurant paints, which can be applied to actively growing grass or dormant grass because they offer full coverage.
Endurant Pigments
The Endurant pigments are Endurant Turf Enhancer (TE) and Endurant Flex (FX). TE is used exclusively on grass that still has chlorophyll. TE can also be used as an indicator dye and to add color to existing green that remains on growing grass.
Endurant Flex is a hybrid paint and pigment that is used on grass that is anywhere in the growing stages between semi-dormant and actively growing grass. It is used in transitions, whether transitioning between seasons, turf grass species or stages of growth.
Endurant Mulch and Pine Straw colorants
Mulch and pine straw colorants save money, time and labor to extend the useful life of these ground coverings. The brown, black, red and pine straw colorants provided by Endurant are very easy to apply with a garden sprayer and help the landscape keep its vibrant color with minimal disruption compared with continuing to layer mulch or replace mulch.
Golf Course Superintendents Use Endurant
While lawn care companies, landscapers, sports field managers, municipalities, homeowners and sod farmers all choose Endurant, golf course superintendents receive some of the best and unique benefits of all users.
In this now classic video on Geoponics.TV, learn how Endurant turf colorants became dubbed liquid overseed, saving golf course superintendents money, water, time and transition challenges when used instead of the costly and chemical-ridden practice of overseeding that puts water in high demand. These costs can be drastically reduced while providing fast and firm playing surfaces and TV tournament-ready turf using Endurant.

Endurant turf colorants are popular throughout the year on warm and cool season grasses, but fall is one of the most common times of the year for turfgrass professionals to consider color enhancers as cooler weather will begin to cause grass to lose color and chlorophyl, particularly in warm season grass varieties.
Nonetheless, cool season grasses were enhanced by the use of Endurant throughout this summer and leading into fall as well. Turfgrass professionals,

Endurant turf colorants replaced the old common environmentally costly practice of overseed. Endurant is lowering the environmental footprint of golf by reducing the practices of overseeding, including overwatering and over fertilizing. While Endurant gained in popularity over the course of 10 years, overseeding practices declined by 50 percent in the same 10 year period, according to Golf Management Magazine and the Golf Course Superintendents Association of America.
The effect on the golf industry alone has been dramatic as indicated by recent studies. Geoponics has expanded to offering more alternatives to home users whose lawn care practices can have an even more dramatic effect due to their collective acreage.
