Organic School Oval and Organic Grass Fertiliser

A little History

Wormtec Worm Farming and Vermicultures.   Wormtec Worm Extract Organic Microbial Fertiliser was originally developed as a sporting field fertiliser at the Coombabah State School Sporting Oval, where we developed this organic fertiliser over a couple of years with constant development and onsite trials with testing at both Southern Cross University and SFI Australia for Microbial Counts.

Constant Development

Once the development of this Wormtec Worm Extract Microbial Fertiliser was started we have continued our development and testing on School Ovals across the Gold Coast, as well as shipping product to Ovals and Sporting Fields outside of the Gold Coast Area. Now 16 years later we are still advancing our product and testing to supply the best product possible at a great price.

There is more to it.  FERTILISING?

But what most people don’t understand is that there is more to fertilising than throwing fertiliser about on a oval, most people just treat the turf symptoms they are seeing, and never seem to get the oval as they want, they have missed the point, you should be treating the soil, The soil give life to the turf grass, Chemical Fertilisers just give short quik results but need to be done over and over again with lots of water.

Working organically to improve the soil and the life that it contains is the only sustainable cost effecent means of maintaining School Sporting Ovals, using this organic method you will have a far greater turf grass covering your sporting oval with a softer soil helping to reduce impact injuries, whilst using far less water (drought Tolerant Sporting Field) This also leads to a far greater playing surface

Chemical Fertilisers Down Side

Chemical Fertilisers have a drastic negative effect on the soil causing soil compaction, reducing microbe numbers, altering soil Ph Levels, causing Turf Stress, Allowing Excess Thatch build up, Promote Shallow Root Growth and Turf Grass that requires lots of water, Organic Microbial Fertilisers can reduced and then eliminate these problems whilst rebuilding the life in the soil and fertilising your turf grass.

Chemical fertiliser leach out of the soil profile with irrigation and heavy rain into ground water supplies, this chemical fertiliser then pollutes our ground water supplies killing fish, frogs and the life in our rivers and oceans due to excess nutrient

The fine dust on sporting fields contains traces of these man made chemical fertilisers children and sporting players breath in this dust and chemical fertiliser residue whilst playing on these sporting fields, another cause for concern is coming in contact with the dust and chemical and the human skin leading to some skin complaints, The ground staff that do the maintenance and mowing have a even higher contact with these substances.

Organically Fertilising School Ovals and Sporting Fields

Having a school oval that has a far softer soil surface to reduce impact injuries from school sport and requires far less water usage, with more tolerance to both turf stress, pest attack and turf diseases, without the need to mechanically  aerate or de-thatch the soil and turf grass.  Your now ready to look at a more chemical free sustainable approach to fertilising. Without the down side of chemical fertilisers use.
