Default [IBC] Turface

Rick,

I did not see your question previously, it may have been lost in cyberspace.
It sounds like the product they are trying to sell you is probably similar
to Turface. Turface MVP is a bit small for my taste, and one has to screen
out about a third of the bag or so to get rid of the excessively fine
particles. If this other stuff is finer that Turface I don't think you will
get all that much useable material from each bag.

If you can get something a little coarser in your area, say 1/8" to 1/4"
range, I think that would be a better bet for you.

Regards,

Hello everyone, I am back with another Turface question. A couple weeks ago
I thought that I had solved my Turface problem. I finally found a nearby
store that could get it for me at a very reasonable price, $12.99/50 lbs.
When the guy at the store brought it up on his computer it said MVP TURFACE
so I ordered a couple bags. I just picked it up and it is not MVP Turface
and it is not from Profile. Instead it is a product very similiar called
Profield Field Conditioner, made by a company called Profield. The bag is
green and white and says calcined clay soil modifier on it. Are any of you
familiar with this product. If anything the only difference may be that this
is finer.
