Vertmax Duo Turf Pigment.

Turf pigments are now a common tool in the Professional Turf Managers toolkit. However, Vertmax Duo is not just any turf pigment, and is a major advance on other copper phthalocyanine green pigments on the market.

• It gives an instant natural green colour response.
• You can use Vertmax Duo on golf greens, golf courses, sportsfields and lawns.
• Vertmax Duo contains a unique biostimulant, that helps fight against biotic and abiotic stresses such as drought and disease.
• It stimulates root growth.
• Vertmax Duo reduces the negative impact of UV light.
• It is s a viable cost effective alternative to overseeding warm season turf over Winter. Our recent research into ryegrass vs pigments confirms this
• You can use Vertmax Duo turf pigment as a spray pattern indicator to help with herbicide and fertilizer applications and give more even coverage.
• Its broadacre sister is Vertmax pigment.

Vertmax Duo contains the biostimulant salicylic acid. Research by ourselves and globally shows that salicylic acid:

• Increases the germination rate of seed.
• Improves the health of plants.
• Increases the stress tolerance of turf grass to disease or drought.

Salicylic acid activates defence responses within a plant, and increases the ability of a plant to fight against turfgrass diseases. It is like white cells fighting against infection in the human body. This makes it more difficult for fungi to infect turf grass.
