The surface was described as "shocking" by Celtic captain Scott Brown after it cut up badly during his side's semi-final win over Rangers on 1 February. But it cannot be repaired and will have to be replaced in time for Celtic's final clash with Dundee United on 15 March.
The turf was recently laid after the stadium was converted back into a football ground following its temporary status as an athletics venue during the Commonwealth Games.

British cycling chief Shane Sutton believes time has probably run out for Mark Cavendish to return to the track for the 2016 Olympics.
Cavendish was considering competing in the omnium in Rio but opportunities are running out for the 29-year-old - who has largely focused on road racing in recent years - to acquire the necessary qualification points.
Image source, AP"I would say Cav is a no. We would have opened the door to Cav, of course," said Sutton. "He can do anything technically, he has been world champion on the track and the greatest road sprinter of all time.
"But unfortunately I think it is the end of the road for Cav. I think he has made his decision not to entertain it."

Image source, Getty ImagesPrince Ali, a Fifa vice-president and executive committee member who is one of three men standing, with Uefa support, against Blatter in this year's presidential elections, said: "Media reports over the weekend are a reminder of why we need Michael Garcia's report into FIFA's World Cup bidding process to be published in full.
"There does appear to be evidence of interference in the drafting of the so-called independent Pieth report by Fifa. This is deeply worrying and suggests something is not right at the heart of FIFA governance."

Image source, Getty ImagesNewcastle manager John Carver has told Remy Cabella not to be "disrespectful" to his team-mates following his angry reaction to being substituted.
Cabella, 24, threw a water bottle after he was replaced during Newcastle's 1-1 draw at home to Stoke on Sunday.
Carver said: "All I said to Remy was 'don't be disrespectful to the guy who's going on'. It's great to see someone react to being taken off the pitch, but there's a way to do that. Gabriel Obertan was going on, and don't be disrespectful. It could be the other way round in the future."
