CONTROL THATCH · PROMOTE HEALTHY TURF · FAST GERMINATION · SMOOTH PLAYING SURFACES
- PARTAC® Premium Golf Course Top-Dressing controls thatch while building the best growing medium and playing surfaces on golf course greens! Heat treated and composed of uniform particles, PARTAC® Premium Golf Course Top-Dressing restores the natural, beneficial bacterial action that breaks down thatch and helps prevent turf diseases, while maintaining the ideal balance for water retention and drainage.
- Our Heat Process Does More Than Kill Weed Seeds! It destroys insects, diseases and nematodes, while binding the sand, silt and clay in soil into water stable aggregates that hold their shape under moisture and compaction. Our heat treatment is a pasteurization process which retains beneficial bacteria without making our mixes hydrophobic. Our heat process dries the mixture so that particles this small can be screened to eliminate oversize and undersize particles which plug up pore spaces and to give you the most effective top-dressing without leaving debris to be raked off! PARTAC® Premium Golf Course Top-Dressing comes dry and spreads with ease. Plus, PARTAC® Premium Golf Course Top-Dressing weighs less, giving you more top-dressing per ton!
- Available in bulk or 50 lb. bags.
