Ecologel Solutions released Hydretain ES Plus Granular QD.
A patented root zone moisture management technology, Hydretain reduces the overall watering requirements of plants, shrubs, trees, turf and agriculture by 50 percent or more. Hydretain ES Plus combines Hydretain’s root zone moisture management with an advanced naturally derived soil surfactant designed to improve penetration into and throughout hydrophobic soils.
The new granular form makes Hydretain easy to spread and a quickly dissolvable granule convenient for dry spreading. Furthermore, the granular Hydretain does not need to be watered in immediately, offering greater flexibility for applicators without access to their customer’s irrigation systems.
At the application rate of 2.7 pounds per 1,000 square feet, each 40-pound bag of Hydretain ES Plus Granular QD will treat up to 14,800 square feet of turf. Once watered in, the granular particle completely breaks down, leaving no carrier behind to disrupt playing surfaces.
