Comments:
Clean the tank before refilling.
No problem mixing the product with water.
Easy to spray
No polymer residue and easy to clean up after application.
Dosage: Use already diluted in water, 1 volume of CCAMS for 20 to 30 volumes of water minimum. We decided to add more water to the tank to ensure that the product is moved to the soil profile, as there is no rain and irrigation is limited in the region.
34 days after the first application, we have seen a very good improvement and the grass is covering the test area.
The improvement is the result of a combination of factors, including a high dose of Flobond CCAMS50 and several rain events during this period.
The usual dose of Flobond CCAMS50 on golf courses and lawns is 25 kg/ha for the 1st application, followed by maintenance applications of 10 to 15 kg/ha.
The application rate is higher than recommended due to timing. We were contacted for this project in midsummer, when daytime temperatures range from 95°F (35°C) to 110° F (44°C) with limited rainfall.
The golf course superintendent is satisfied with current performance. Results will be evaluated at the end of the trial period
