Vertmax Duo turf pigment and grass colourant

Vertmax® Duo turf pigment with QDT.

Vertmax® Duo  pigment is the same concentrated pigment plus a unique bio - stimulant package. When you use this at  label rates  has several plant health benefits.

For example, bent and winter grass can only utilize a certain amount of light which is in the 400 - 500 μmols m2 s - 1 range. Above this  light intensity  and turf becomes photosynthetically saturated which can occur during summer months when light intensities are often over 2,500 μmols m2 s - 1. This affects turf performance, wear tolerance, and disease resistance.

With the use of a turf pigment, it is able to absorb and transmit a given light wavelength and reflect a different one. So when you use Vertmax® pigments, they still allow for PAR light transmission but at a reduced light intensity. The end result is a healthier turf surface as most UV light is either absorbed or reflected.
