• It comes in 0.75 cubic-foot bags.

• 1 bag will cover = 38 square feet

• Through colonization, biochemistry, and strategic ecosystem development, OMNI Infinity Media supports microbial communities and plant life within the geological substrate. By creating the conditions for life to flourish and encouraging that natural process, these materials transform into a robust landscape that grows within weeks after installation during a region’s typical growing season.
• OMNI Infinity Media used within a vegetative roof assembly is highly accommodating to your project goals. A built-in-place vegetative roof assembly can be employed from a minimum depth of 3” to 48” or deeper to support the growth of grasses, annuals, perennials, shrubs, and trees—all with Omni Infinity Media.
• The high infiltration rate and high porosity make it an effective stormwater management tool. It has also been used in bioinfiltration and bioretention depressions and berms, bioswales, rain gardens, and vegetative roof assemblies.

Slow-Release Fertilizer: OMNI recommends the following brand below, however, if this is not available in your area then other slow release fertilizers with similar specifications and formulations can work as well. 

• Osmocote Smart-Release Plant Food
• The fertilizer will be applied last. 
• Ensure the fertilizer is a controlled-release granular fertilizer.
• Distribute the slow-release fertilizer, evenly (on top of) the BIO layer.
• Applied at a rate of 1 pound per 100 square feet.

Accessory Components of the Vegetative Roof Assembly:  Please review the maintenance guidelines for incorporating the accessory components.

1.) Irrigation System:  All vegetative roof systems using Omni Infinity Media must be installed with an irrigation system to ensure proper vegetation establishment and survival of the ecosystem during periods of drought. Once the vegetation is established, the irrigation system can and should be adjusted to reduce non-essential water consumption. (Please read the guidelines for appropriate irrigation frequency and installment)

2.) Erosion Control Blanket (as needed—to be installed after seeding). Used  to cover the green roof during times of drought and/or off-season protection. Refer to project specifications and manufacturer’s installation instructions.
