Why does turf grow algae so fast in Murrells Inlet?
Because the Inlet's tidal marsh raises humidity enough that shaded turf, a fence-line strip in Woodlake Village or the ground under a deck in Collins Creek Landing, stays damp overnight most of the year, and that moisture plus pollen and leaf litter is exactly what algae needs. TIMELESS Turf Restoration rinses the organic layer from the infill and applies an algaecide and antimicrobial, from $299.
Marsh air, not just marsh views
Humidity off the Inlet's tidal marsh keeps turf damp overnight most of the year. Shaded sides in Prince Creek, fence lines in Woodlake Village and deck shade in Collins Creek Landing are the first places green film shows up.
Where it starts and where it spreads
Algae needs moisture, shade and food, and the Inlet supplies extra of the first. In a wet year, a fence-line strip can spread into more of the lawn once pine pollen feeds it through spring. Algae and mold removal takes the layer out of the infill.
