Turfgrass Management is a diverse discipline that can range from golf course management and lawn care, to sports field management and parks management, to sod production. While the turf applications can vary, the struggle to maintain grass health is a common concern.
Turfgrass specialists persistently face challenges from issues such as poor water absorption, inadequate nutrient intake, exposure to pests and disease, and the pressures of executing effective and ethical environmental practices and water management plans. These ongoing concerns are of critical importance and can directly impact efficiency and profitability.
The fundamental foundation of turfgrass health starts with clean water and healthy soil, and, it is here where H2O2 Water and Hydroxyl can offer help. NSF and EPA approved Hydroxyl is a fast acting, ecologically sustainable, stabilized peroxide product with a prolonged efficiency time. Biodegradable and non-toxic, Hydroxyl improves soil oxygenation levels, preserves beneficial soil microbiomes, eliminates the presence of harmful biofilms that may exist within the water containment and distribution systems and is highly effective in neutralizing the harmful bacteria that can weaken turf’s resilience against pests and disease. Hydroxyl decomposes into simple water and oxygen leaving no lasting chemical footprint and no harmful byproducts or coproducts behind. This makes it ideal for applications in environmentally sensitive ecosystems and where ethical environmental and water management plans are a concern.
Once introduced into either a water system or the environment, Hydroxyl immediately goes to work and offers several benefits:
Versatile – Hydroxyl is multifunctional. It can be used as a water treatment for the irrigation system, as a sanitizer for equipment, as a curative for diseased or sick turf, and as a preventative against pathogenic entities such as the bacteria that causes black layer.
Keeps Irrigation Systems Clean – Hydroxyl is effective in eliminating the build up of algae and biofilms within water containment and irrigation systems. This keeps source water clear, prevents clogged nozzles and sprinkler heads and also ensures that water applied to the turf is as contaminant free as possible.
Reduces Disease – Hydroxyl effectively oxidizes organic matter responsible for black layer build up and also possesses antimicrobial properties to prevent turf diseases.
Reduces Reliance on Traditional Fumigants – Hydroxyl selectively oxidizes pathogens and protects the beneficial microbiomes naturally present in the soil. This prevents or slows the recolonization of opportunistic pathogens thereby reducing the need for fumigation.
Supports Germination – Traditional treatments have longer plant back periods and can harm germination. By comparison, Hydroxyl decomposes into water and oxygen and leaves no harmful chemical residue behind making it safe to apply pre-plant or in-season via irrigation or spray.
Environmentally Sustainable – Hydroxyl can play a role in supporting ethical environmental and water management plans. It leaves no chemical footprint behind, and reduces dependence on chemical fertilizers and fumigants resulting in less harmful runoff and better environmental outcomes.
Reduces Operational Costs – Regular use of Hydroxyl can reduce operational costs by reducing the frequency in which turf needs to be watered and reducing the requirements for chemical fertilizers and fumigants.
