What's the point? The grass will die and all you'll have is dirt left.

2014 - Notre Dame selling turf

Sister (no pics) & B-in-L built a house near Memphis and their builder used turf from Vaught-Hemingway for the yard.

Wayback the B-in-L was on USM’s team but didn’t let that get in the way of a good deal.

Nice yard, as I recall.

That’s all I got.

The new stuff lasts, a local HS team here in St.Louis(private school), bought the Saints field turf, when they recently bought new stuff for the Superdome.

The Field of Dreams at The Galleria Houston has a chunk of the goal line from Texas stadium. And it was still in pretty good condition.

I'm referring to small pieces, maybe a foot square. Not making an entire yard.

I bought turf from the Atlanta Falcons Stadium. It was looking real good until it suddenly died on me in early February.

If it's the new field turf, regardless of size, the shite lasts. I imagine putting it into some sort of glass container would also help longevity.

You must have failed to used a 28:3 mix of fertilizer and water.

A friend that worked in the athletic department got my roommates and I a little pot with grass from Kyle Field when A&M did the renovation. Awesome idea in theory, but it was too small for irresponsible college students to keep alive so they are no longer in our possession

Yeah the OP doesn’t know the difference from field turf and grass.
