The all-natural turf paint has a lasting pigment with a green color that does not fade to blue. It’s suitable for turf grass, golf courses and sports turf. Geoponics carries colorants for mulch, pinestraw, grass and sand.
There are two turf colorant varieties — Endurant for grass in the dormant stage and Endurant TE, a pigment and enhancer, for grass in the actively growing stage.
Eagle Creek Golf & Country Club Superintendent Jimmy Alston uses sustainable, organic products. Penterra, Soil Plex, HydraHawk, Aquakler and Carbotein are among them.
Jimmy Alston, who’s been using organics on the course for almost 20 years, chose to try Geoponics in-part because they’re natural and earthfriendly. He became a fan because of the RESULTS.
“I’ve found organic management to be less expensive than conventional. What I found right away was that it was easier. I had better day-to-day conditions, which is very important on the golf course in terms of playability,” said Alston.
“The main philosophy behind our organic first program is soil health– having a diverse, robust microbiology.”
“Carbotein has proved to be a very good food source for microbiology,” Alston said.
Carbotein can be used on gardens for vibrant flowers and increased yields on crops, including fruits and vegetables. (Read about the modified Hydroponic Garden at Eagle Creek maintained by Alston here.)
Penterra is the best soil surfactant he has ever used. The course’s elevation is low. The fairways are just a foot above sea level, so drainage and infiltration is a big deal for playability at Eagle Creek Golf & Country Club in Naples, Fla.
“We needed help to firm up the surface. I liked Penterra right away because it’s natural based,” Alston said.
He became more of a fan after using it.
“I’ve seen chemical-based surfactants and they just add yucca to it and say it’s natural. No it’s not. Almost all the other surfactants I’ve ever used greatly reduced microbiology. We haven’t seen that with Penterra,” said Alston.
The benefits are beautiful, playable turf and favorable ingredients, and most importantly perhaps, favorable results in the microbial testing he does– proof that the results will last, he said.
“Basically, I’m looking for the whole food web to increase. When I test and see the soil is as robust and diverse as possible, I know the soil will then take care of whatever is growing in it,” Alston said.
He comes from eight generations of farmers and his philosophy is to keep it simple.
“Soil chemistry is confusing. In organics, you don’t have to worry about soil chemistry. With organics, biology takes care of it all for you,” Alston said.
He uses HydraHawk, another soil surfactant wetting agent, also a great microbial food source, he said. HydraHawk saves water!
“I liked the plant extracts and sugars in it,” said Alston.
HydraHawk is used to help water penetrate compacted or arid soils and aids plant life in the uptake of water and nutrients. HydraHawk contains unique natural surfactants that help the plants utilize water and survive in extreme heat, drought and soil salinity even in the more severe climate conditions.
The pond at Eagle Creek is always healthy even in the most intense heat waves– Aquakler is his secret.

“It’s great for our shallow pond to keep oxygen levels high even in the warmest weather when the water is low. Nothing is worse for members than to see dead fish on the golf course. That never looks good. We’ve seen really good stuff with Aquakler,” Alston said.
SoilPlex is also used at Eagle Creek because the irrigation water is very salty.
“We’re right on the saltwater-freshwater interface near Rookery Bay. The humic acid and folvic acid in SoilPlex buffer the affects of the salt in the soil,” said Alston.
While Alston was immediately attracted to Geoponics earthfriendly products, it took clear cut results for him to become a true fan.
“It takes a lot of tests for me to come to a conclusion about a product. Once it gets to that point though, I’m a lifelong user,” Alston said.
Turf paint is winning over golf course management professionals and players of all levels.
That includes USGA (United States Golf Association) Director Pat O’Brien, of the USGA Green Section’s Southeast Region, which includes the states of Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee and, internationally, Bermuda.

Golf Course Superintendent Rodney Lingle of Memphis, Tennessee Country Club has some of the best Champion greens of anyone in the country and is an expert on greens painting.
He usually paints just once per year, applying it a bit dark at first to get through a whole growing season without reapplying.
There are so many benefits, as he shares in the video below, that once you try Endurant turf paint, you won’t go back to overseed. It’s a matter of using fewer harmful chemicals, saving water, saving money and time– and of course having the most playable, beautiful turf possible.
Watch as he applies Endurant, which is Geoponics organic, earthy-friendly turf colorant. www.TurfPaint.net)
Mr. Lingle will be hosting a GCSAA webinar on this later in the month!
