“Aquaritin Defend continues to be in every greens application at 6oz/acre into fall and winter. It stays in through our snow mold/ seedhead suppression application. Aquaritin Defend is also used in snow mold applications for tees and fairways but will likely use Aquaritin 19 this year.”
“I was blown away! Absolutely blown away. So, we went ahead and sprayed all of our fairways with it, and again I was blown away with the color response we got. The density increased. It was Just a better standard of turf in all those areas. Aquaritin products to me, 19 and Aquaritin Defend are well worth their weight in gold. It's just a matter of getting them out, utilizing them and seeing (through the golfer’s eyes) what results they get.”

"When I tell people about Aquaritin, I say it’s almost like giving the turf a steroid shot. I just remember how good the turf looked the next morning after the spray. I was blown away!"
Point of Contention #2: My current program works just fine
We get it, you’re proud of your current turf management programs and the hard work you’ve put into it. Most courses start using Aquaritin as an add on to their existing program.

Point of Contention #3: How can such a small dosage have an impact on any kind of any kind on my turf?
Aquaritin is a nano fertilizer, which means that the nutrient particles are between 1-30 nanometers. By comparison the average human hair is 70,000nm. This allows for almost instand nutrient absorption by the plant, and it also means that less fertilizer is needed to achieve the same results. You may be skeptical that such a small dosage of fertilizer can have a significant impact on your turf. There is a growing body of research that supports the use of nano fertilizers. For example, a study published in the journal HortScience found that nano fertilizer was more effective at improving turf quality than traditional fertilizer.
In addition to existing research, we simply ask that you take a look at what your peers have to say.
