1-800-NEW-TURF "Kickin' Some Serious Grass!"®
Grow Grass Anywhere... EVEN ON A ROOF!
Experience Green Innovations
Discover the marvel of urban greenery with North America's most expansive green roof (as of 2014), ingeniously integrated atop the Croton Water Filtration Plant. Nestled beneath the Mosholu Golf Course's driving range in Van Cortlandt Park, Bronx, NY, this architectural masterpiece, valued at over $3.5 billion, extends over 400,000 sq. ft. and descends about 100 feet underground.
Challenges Overcome:
- The engineered fill lacked vital organic content and nutrients essential for plant growth.
- Designed for high permeability, the fill was capable of absorbing up to 15 inches of rainfall per hour.
- The project mandated exclusively organic materials for application.
Innovative Green Solution
We introduced a groundbreaking biotic soil amendment (BSA), incorporating an entirely organic fertilizer mix and a comprehensive biological inoculant. This BSA was seamlessly integrated into the hydroseeding mix, crafting a biotic-enriched hydraulic growth medium (HGM) that significantly boosted soil biomass and fostered a more robust turf.
Outstanding Results
Rapid vegetation emergence was noted within days, culminating in a lush, dense turf established in just 8 weeks. The project's success not only impressed our clients but also paved the way for further collaborative ventures, showcasing our commitment to pioneering green solutions.
