Vitax OARS Curative Re-Launched

Vitax Amenity (in conjunction with Aqua-Aid Corporation) re-launches Vitax OARS Curative.

OARS, (which stands for Organic Acid Removal System) breaks down the organic waxy coating that surrounds the soil particle, which is a major cause of water repellence on greens. A situation that frequently leads to localised dry patch.

Joe Crawley, head of Vitax Amenity says that when used within water management and wetting agent programmes on golf greens, the product greatly reduces dry patch disease and helps create faster, drier playing surfaces, especially when included in the 'Dial-in' programme.

"The 'Dial-in' programme involves the mixing of Aqua-Aid penetrant and Aquifer which is a pure hydrating agent, at ratios to suit your green," he explains. "If your green is a USGA rootzone with fast infiltration rates it is best to use less penetrant which will move the hydrating agent through the soil too quickly. 'Dial-in' or mixing to your greens' requirements gives you more control of your soil water management."
