Climate.
Some areas may not enjoy a climate conducive for growing natural turf on a year-round basis because of either severe summers or severe winters. Synthetic turf provides a magnificant alternative.
Covered and Shadey areas.
Limit natural sunlight making cultivation of natural turf more difficult.
Reduced Maintenance.
Does not require seasonal fertilization, mowing, trimming and aeration as natural turf does.
Grass obtains three of the four essential factors (air, water and nutrients) from the soil; many soils are less than suitable for growing grass. Some soils contain too much clay, which can result in compaction. This may cause the roots to smother and die due to air and water being unable to penetrate all the way to the roots.
While some people don't fully understand the importance of good soils for their lawn, many believe, they can save time and money by ignoring the need to improve their lawn's soil. Failing to improve the soil structure before planting is only creating a greater continual investment of money and time, that will never return its value as fully as preparing the soil properly before planting any turf.
Many soils have inadequate pH levels (degree of acidity or alkalinity), resulting in it being too high or too low for optimum grass growth. A sandy loam, with a pH of 6.0 to 7.0 is the best soil for producing beautiful, healthy lawns. Unfortunately, this soil mixture is seldom found on any property after building has gone on.
