While Googling around this morning I can across an interesting
article on improving sports fields. It contained a table with
the company names, products, etc. of firms that make the best
soil conditioners for ball fields and other sports fields.

Turface, of course, is one of these.

So, for your further reference (and I suggest you save this
info) here are 6 major makers of soil amendments:

Company Product
===============================================
Profile Turface
www.profileproducts.com and www.turface.com
==============================================
TXI Diamond Pro
Diamond Pro is described as an expanded
shale and clay.
www.txi.com and www.diamondpro.com
===============================================
Oil Dri Soil Master & Terra Green
www.oildri.com/agri/index.html and
www.bonsaimonk.com for Terra Green (a bit
expensive)
================================================
Southern Athletic Fields Mule Mix (what I use)
www.mulemix.com
================================================
Eagle Pitcher Play Ball & Axis Soil Amendment
(both diatomaceous earth
PLUS products)

http://www.eaglepitcher.com/Filtrati...ucts_services/
Scroll to Axis Soil Amendments and Play Ball
==================================================
Stabilizer Solutions Stabilizer
www.stabilizersolutions.com
================================================== =


Most of the sites have links to help you find a distributor near
you. All North American I THINK.

=================================================

Turface, Terra Green, and Mule Mix are essentially identical. I
have NOT seen any of the others.

Hope this is useful.
