PROPERTIES
SC-50 helps improve soil that has become hydrophobic – resists water. Using amino acids and ammonium laureth sulfate as a surfactant, this product allows water molecules to adhere to soil particles – as opposed to simply running off. Using it will improve soil aeration and allow for compact soils to be broken up. These actions will allow plant roots to move into the soil, developing healthier root systems and plants.This product is biodegradable and can be used where excess runoff may occur. This is a great wetting agent for a wide variety of various growing media.
Benefits
*SC-50 has the ability to work in the soil with applied water and help that water penetrate to subsoil from the compaction zone.
*SC-50 will increase the amount and size of microporous voids (Air) in the soil, including the compaction zone.
*In wet seasons, soils treated with SC-50 will absorb water more easily and therefore erosion will be reduced.
*In dry seasons, since pore spaces are created by the SC-50 process, the water that SC-50 lowers into the subsoil can move upwards to the root systems by capillary action. This capillary action will therefore relieve plant stress.
*SC-50 treated soils allow roots to grow towards the healing compaction zone which means healthier and stronger plants that can produce more crops.
APPLICATION TIME
SC-50 is always applicable; however, cotton, cereals, vegetables, etc. Preferred times are before sowing and after harvest.
DOSAGE
