Surf-Max®

Benefits of Use:

  • Use up to 25% less irrigation water while attaining better water movement through the soil, more effectively providing moisture and delivering water-carried nutrients. 
  • Due to the complexed Micro Carbon Technology®, the benefits of carbon are carried directly through the soil to the root zone, enabling plants to more effectively absorb nutrients. 
  • Surf-Max® is fully biodegradable, non-hazardous, non-phytotoxic, and highly compatible with existing chemistries. 
  • Great for growers of strawberries, tomatoes, peppers, melons, cotton, potatoes fruit trees, olives, lettuce, carrots, blueberries, etc. 

Deficiency Symptoms—When to Apply: 

  • Wherever drought conditions or water restrictions are present; when water conservation is important 
  • When planting in light-sandy, sandy-loam, or hydrophobic soils
