Engage Force Wetting Agent 5L

Penetrant and curative wetting agent for localised dry patch. Powerful blend of surfactants that aids water infiltration and can emulsify hydrophobic materials which can then be removed with a strong water flush.

Wet conditions generating water-logged root zones for extended periods encourage the growth of anaerobic micro-organisms in the soil and dormancy of aerobic micro-organisms. Anaerobic organisms are less efficient than aerobic organisms at breaking down organic material – this can lead to more hydrophobic soil conditions. Thus, following prolonged wet conditions, golf courses may benefit from a curative application. The traditional time to make a curative application is early spring but it can be applied in the autumn and winter months.

BENEFITS

• Highly concentrated product means low use rates, cost effectiveness and less packaging and storage space required.
• Penetrant and curative effect from one product
• Aids infiltration of water
• Reduces run off
• May reduce localised water logging
• Curative action for spot treatment
• Helps to create a more even playing surface.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE

As a Penetrant: Apply at 1-2 litres per hectare (0.1 - 0.2 grams per square metre) never exceeding a solution strength of 1%. This will aid adsorption of water into the soil for up to 2 weeks. Applications should not be made more frequently than every two weeks or at higher concentrations.

As a Curative: Apply at 2-3 litres per hectare (0.2 - 0.3 grams per square metre) never exceeding a solution strength of 1%. Allow to stand for 30 minutes then flush through thoroughly with irrigation water. When used on localised hydrophobic areas a strong flush using hand watering will be most effective.
