The grass fibers are woven to provide top-class performance without requiring additional infill. If you prefer to use infill, we recommend using the finest quality sand infill with our Poly Green model, as SGC Zeolite has coarse grains and may not be suitable for this specific product.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=&#8221;Can I store my roll of grass for installation next year?&#8221; custom_font_container=&#8221;tag:h4|text_align:left&#8221; custom_google_fonts=&#8221;font_family:Karla%3Aregular%2Citalic%2C700%2C700italic|font_style:700%20bold%20regular%3A700%3Anormal&#8221; use_custom_heading=&#8221;true&#8221;]Yes, you can store the roll of grass for future installation.
