With increased traffic, improved drainage,  year round play and a changing climate, the fertility demands of your turf have changed considerably. The traditional use of agricultural fertilisers such as 10:10:20 & 18:6:12 are unable to meet these demands. Controlled release fertilisers have been developed to produce stronger, more consistent growth over much longer periods, reducing cutting and thickening the sward.

These are available in 2 forms and are available to the plant by both foliar and root uptake:

  • Immediately Available Liquids
  • Slow Release Liquids
  • Immediately available liquids, are mainly used in the spring & winter, and contain low temperature available nitrogen. They are useful for applying small quantities of nutrients in an even manner, without the speckling which can be a problem when granular fertilisers are applied at low rates.
  • Slow release liquids have a low scorch risk and are very safe for summer use.
  • In calculating nutrient input from liquid fertilisers it is important to know the specific gravity of the product in question……..All liquids are not the same, don’t just go by the analysis on the drum!

LIQUID FERTILISERS – (Immediately available form)

ELEVATE FE 
Non-staining, complexed liquid iron fertiliser. Cost-effective formulation of
iron for use on outfield turf. Unlike most iron plus nitrogen
formulations, the iron in Elevate Fe is chemically-bonded to

plant for a rapid green-up after application and long-lasting
results. Application of Elevate Fe at 20 litres per hectare
applies just over 1.5kg N/hectare.

• Clean, ready to use liquid

• Can be tank-mixed with Relay Turf selective herbicide

• No blackening or wheel marks

• Mixes easily with Clipless plant growth regulator (PGR) and liquid fertilisers
