I needed a quick artificial grass area for the side yard for my small dogs. The size was exactly 3'x8' as listed, and it fit perfectly in the area. It was very easy to use shears to cut around the drain and curve against the house and walkway. Although it was thinner than expected, it’s easy to clean with soap and a hose, and it has a good green color. I used the recommended stakes to secure it into the ground, and it stays in place well.


To achieve results when using zeolite infill it's important to conduct research on the entire process ranging from installing the turf to managing drainage and ongoing upkeep.

I began by setting up a 9x26ft dog run. Initially I dug out 3 yards of soil to create a defined area enclosed with 2x6 pressure treated wood (you can refer to the images, for visuals). Subsequently, I. Compacted the soil. Following this I laid down two layers of weed barrier. Then I added 5 inches of recycled concrete for better drainage support topped with crushed blue stone to fill any gaps in the recycled concrete. Using either a power tamper or hand tamper I pressed down on the surface to ensure it was flat and even.

Next came laying down the turf. It was essential to invest in specific turf from GST that comes equipped with built in drainage holes for proper water flow. Regular cheap outdoor carpet wouldn't suffice for pets as its primarily for appearance purposes.

Since it was my time working with this material I was excited to give it a try. After laying out the turf I utilized my Ryobi power brush to lift up the turf fibers making way, for application of infill material.I used a drop spreader to spread the product and then used a power brush to work it into the turf. After that I sprayed a deodorant liquid using a hose sprayer. I follow this routine every three months. During the months of July and August I do it monthly.

For this product to be effective you need to have an installed turf system. Putting in some effort upfront makes maintenance much simpler. The process of applying this product from start to finish takes around 45 minutes with the drop spreader and power brush. I own three dogs weighing, between 85 and 120 pounds.

Negative feedback often arises from installation methods like using low quality turf without drainage or neglecting regular maintenance. There's no secret thoughtful planning ahead. Take your time to get it right. This product will deliver results! The only drawback is the cost. Its definitely worth the investment. Best of luck, to everyone!
