Mitchell - Terreplex Acidifier - 5 GAL

Product Label Download SDS

Terreplex is a carbon-rich acidifier derived from the lignin in trees. It is a natural organic polymer, fully biodegradable, non-phytotoxic, non-corrosive, and economical for use on turf. It reduces bicarbonate levels, helping convert bound minerals into plant-available forms while acting as a complexing agent to improve absorption.

Terreplex contains over 3 lbs of carbon per gallon – more than any other leading product – providing the energy source needed to stimulate soil microbial activity. Users can expect to see enhanced turf nutritional program efficiency, increased cation exchange capacity, and improved soil structure.

Active Ingredient: Plant Derived Organic Acid

For use on:

• Warm and Cool Turfgrasses
• Golf Course Greens, Tees, Fairways
• Athletic Fields
• Home Lawns
• Sod Farms
• Landscape Areas, including annual and perennial flowers, foliage plants, grasses, ground covers, trees and shrubs

Weeds Controlled

Application

Spray Application: Apply Terreplex using 1-2 GAL of water per 1000 SQ FT as a spray application using boom, hand-held or backpack sprayers. It is not necessary to water Terreplex into the soil immediately after application. However, it is suggested that Terreplex be watered into the soil in order to have a greater impact on soil chemistry.
For best results, fill spray tank half full with water, add the appropriate amount of Terreplex and begin agitation. Add the remaining water to fill tank. Vigorous agitation may require addition of a commercial defoamer. Mixing Terreplex with TriCure AD Soil Surfactant™ at the time of application will greatly improve the penetration of Terreplex into the soil, hence optimizing the results (see TriCure AD label for specific rate information). Since Terreplex has a low pH, it is not recommended to be mixed with high-pH materials unless application is made promptly. Terreplex is compatible with many commonly used turf chemicals; however, a jar test and field testing should be conducted on any tank mix with which you do not have prior experience to assure safety concerns are met.

Application by Injection Application of Terreplex via irrigation lines is recommended where possible. Please consult your Terreplex representative or Mitchell Products directly with any questions or for further assistance.

Application Rates and Intervals: Initial Shock Treatment: 64 OZ/ACRE
Treatment Maintenance Program: 32-64 OZ/ACRE on a 14-day schedule throughout the growing season
In general, a program for reducing bicarbonates requires treating a soil with an initial shock treatment of organic acid to clear the problem area before adopting a semimonthly maintenance program. Application rates of organic acids depend on the local water and soil conditions. The rates below are guidelines for application by spray or by injection. Use rate can vary depending on the severity of the conditions and on a number of other factors including amount of rainfall, irrigation frequency and soil type. A water sample may provide a more accurate benchmark for determining use rate. Contact your local Terreplex representative or Mitchell Products directly with any questions or for further assistance.
