PRODUCT DESCRIPTION: Green-Speed Si is a proprietary formula with silica, potassium phosphite, and humic acid as the active ingredients. Silica hardens the leaf and helps strengthen the xylem vessels during times of high transpiration, reducing water loss. Green-Speed Si contains Potassium Phosphite which promotes turf health and increases the turf’s resistance to disease and pests. Potassium also builds carbohydrate reserves. The humic acid increases nutrient uptake through the leaf and root tissue. It is designed for foliar application on all varieties of turf grasses on greens, tees and roughs, sports turf, lawns and ornamental grasses. Green Speed can be used in a regular maintenance program. It is best to apply Green Speed prior to heavy traffic or prior to times of heat stress.
• STRENGTHENS TURF BLADES • FASTER BALL ROLL / REDUCE BALL MARKS • HELPS INCREASE RESISTANCE TO DISEASE & PESTS • IMPROVES HEAT AND DROUGHT STRESS • BETTER CUT BY GREEN MOWERS • PLUS HUMIC ACID TO ACCELERATE ABSORPTION
APPLICATION RECOMMENDATIONS: Green-Speed is used at the rate of 3 - 4 oz per 1,000 sq. ft. One gallon of Green-Speed will treat approximately one acre of greens or sports fields. Apply every 2 to 3 weeks throughout the season. For tournament preparation, apply 3 to 4 days before the tournament date for maximum results. Application with low volume sprayers is not recommended. Green-Speed does not have to be watered in. However, you can water it in lightly without affecting the results. For optimum results, Green-Speed can be tank mixed with Essential® Plus 1-0-1.

Mixing: Dilute at the rate of 1 to 100 in water if possible. Put half the water in the tank and add Green-Speed.
