Most systems rely on pre-made planting material which is susceptible to drying out, both at preparation and planting. This system produces the stolons from fresh turf at the time of planting.

Demand for water is one third of that needed by conventional disc planting systems

This method puts 90% of the planting material below the ground. The surrounding soil needs only be kept moist.

The unit is highly maneuverable

The rear castor wheels can be placed easily into difficult areas and very efficiently maneuvered around obstacles such as trees and bunkers. The hydraulics enable easy lifting over sprinkler heads and valve boxes.

The quality of the planting was of high order and gave a very good plant to soil contact at a good density." Niel Crafter Director, Principal Golf Course Architect Golf Strategies
