Dried silica sand SportTop ST 06/12 25 kg

The suitability of using silica sand in a lawn can be a key factor in achieving a healthy and beautiful appearance of a green area. Silica sand, containing a high proportion of quartz, can offer several benefits that contribute to optimal grass growth and quality.

Advantages: 

Soil drainage and permeability:

• • Silica sand has the ability to improve soil drainage and increase permeability. This helps prevent waterlogging and water stagnation in the grass root zone. Ensuring optimal drainage is key to preventing root diseases and promoting healthy plant growth.

Soil ventilation:

• • Silica sand can help aerate the soil by increasing air permeability to the root system. This is important for supplying oxygen to the roots, which supports their healthy development and the overall vitality of the grass.

Soil compaction prevention:

• • Adding silica sand to your lawn can help prevent soil compaction. Compacted soil has limited permeability to water, air and nutrients, which can negatively affect grass root growth. Silica sand helps keep the soil loose and reduces pressure on the root system.

Mold and algae control:

• • Silica sand can help prevent the growth of mold and algae on your lawn. The silica in the sand has antifungal properties that can protect your grass from disease and harmful microorganisms.

Increasing soil pH:

• • Some types of silica sand can act as natural soil pH improvers. Maintaining optimal pH is key to nutrient absorption and providing the right chemical environment for grass growth.

When using silica sand in a lawn, it is important to consider the current condition of the soil and the specifics of the environment.

Sandblasting objectives:

– improvement of the lawn vegetation layer – improvement of grass tillering

– improvement of soil structure

– increased water and air permeability

– increased nutrient intake

– sanding accelerates the drying of the lawn after rainfall – significantly reduces the formation of thatch and moss

– leveling minor irregularities in the lawn area
