United Turf Alliance announces the introduction of Optimizer Sweet Iron. This unique sprayable iron polysaccharide product boosts turfgrass color, enhances nutrient uptake and improves overall plant health by enabling both foliar and root absorption of the product by turfgrass plants. It is applied at a much lower rate than traditional iron products.
Optimizer Sweet Iron combines a water-soluble form of iron with a complex natural polysaccharide to provide novel delivery and outstanding residual color without the use of urea. In addition, the new iron product contains plant-available amino acids to promote the optimum plant metabolism required for efficient nutrient uptake and utilization. Optimizer Sweet Iron also feeds and stimulates soil microbial populations as the polysaccharide breaks down.
Applied at the labeled rate of 12 to 16 oz. per acre, a one-gallon container of Optimizer Sweet Iron may treat the same area as ten gallons of other iron products. Optimizer Sweet Iron is ideal for use on golf courses, sports turf and commercial and residential lawns. It is tank mix compatible with a variety of products and packaged in a 4 X 1-gallon case.
