Gemini® Granular

Gemini Granular® with patent pending R-50 Optimizer™ is a powerful, flexible weed management tool that controls 120+ weeds with a low risk of Phytotoxicity. R-50 Optimizer™ gives Gemini® Granular the power to stop weeds with less active ingredient, allowing the weed manager to make more applications per year, or reduce the active ingredient applied per application.

Gemini® Granular rate range goes from 100-200 pounds per acre per application with a maximum application rate per year of 375 lbs. At higher rates, weed control will last longer. Research has shown weed control at high rates for up to 4 months, and low rates 60-90 days.

Whether the applicator is looking for a longer-duration pre-emergent herbicide that will be tolerated by a very broad range of crops, or a herbicide to slip into the window where the existing program doesn’t quite hold up, Gemini® Granular with R-50 Optimizer™ is the right choice.

Gemini® Granular will be registered in all US states except NY. Registration is still in process so check with your Territory Manager if you have a question about a particular state.

Fungicides Banrot® 40

Soil & Soilless Media Wetting Agents Nurseries, Greenhouses, Agriculture United States

Greenhouse and Nursery H2Pro™ Greenhouse & Nursery surfactant optimizes soilless media water-holding capacity, decreases irrigation frequency, reduces or eliminates dry spots, and helps prevent wilting both in production and post-production.

H2Pro™ Greenhouse and Nursery is composed of short, medium and long chain surfactant molecules. As the medium and long chains break down, they reattach to the soil and continue working just like the short chain molecules. It can be applied during soil blending, or any time during production, right up through shipping.

At high rates, H2Pro™ Greenhouse and Nursery’s rewetting ability can continue for as long as a year — long enough for the entire production cycle — and right through the retail environment for many crops.

H2Pro™ Greenhouse & Nursery Liquid Concentrate

H2Pro™ Greenhouse & Nursery Liquid Concentrate is blended with water and applied to soilless growing media.

Concentrations vary based on the use and desired length of the wetting affects. High concentrations can be applied once per crop cycle, or once per growing season. Medium concentrations can be applied periodically based on need. Low concentrations can be applied frequently, or on a constant basis for convenience. For companies that blend potting soil, H2Pro™ Greenhouse and Nursery Liquid can be added during the blending process to ensure both initial wet-out and long-term water holding ability. Finally, H2Pro™ Greenhouse & Nursery Liquid is the most cost efficient way to apply this high performance wetting agent.
