    With the global launch of Aquaritin 19 in 2022 superintendents around the world we’re able to experience first-hand the awesome power of nanotechnology.

    At half the price of traditional NPK fertilizers and dosing at 61x less volume, Aquaritin 19 is revolutionizing the foliar fertilizer industry. Aquaritin 19 uses breakthrough nanotechnology to deliver Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Potassium and 7 essential nutrients in a single formulation. Nanoparticles are proven to outperform micronic particles due to their larger surface area, easy attachment, fast mass transfer and controlled release of active ingredients.

    In trials across the US and Europe, this groundbreaking technology was proven beyond the shadow of a doubt to have a massive impact on color response and increased density. Aquaritin 19 improves green speeds without lowering HOC and above all maintains playability late into the day. 

    “I was blown away! Absolutely blown away. So, we went ahead and sprayed all of our fairways with it, and again I was blown away with the color response we got. The density increased. It was just a better standard of turf in all those areas.”

    Matt Whalen, Superintendent, The Broadlands GC

    Incredibly, the University of Florida did a study which found the uptake rates of Nitrogen in plants using traditional NPK fertilizers was less than 1%. Given its nanoparticle solution, Aquaritin 19 is taken up by the plant within minutes of application with limited waste. 

    With a balanced mix of Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Potassium and 7 other plant nutrients in a single formulation, Aquaritin 19 contains primary nutrients (N, P, K); secondary nutrients (Ca, Mg ); micronutrients (Fe, Zn, B, Mo) and Si. The particle size is between 1 and 30 nm and each nutrient is adsorbed onto nano-silica molecules, preventing them from bonding with each other, with water or the atmosphere. Nanoparticles allow for easier fluming in the tank and produce micro droplets during application. Aquaritin 19 mixes easily in the tank with other fertilizers, fungicides, PGRs and pesticides. 

    “In my 30 plus years in the golf course industry I have never seen the color on bentgrass greens so awesome. The greens literally glowed for the two months of our applications. Really good results.”

    Scott Schurman, Superintendent - Lafortune park gc

    Throughout the US and Europe, after a terrible summer of extreme heat and drought, courses were reporting less loss due to heat stress even with less rain, less watering and less spraying overall. With the additional labor shortages and inflation, the addition of Aquaritin 19 allowed for huge savings in time and labor. The Nanosilica in Aquaritin 19 is known to lower water loss and protect the plant against heat stress. Our customer feedback suggests that they have had to hand water less frequently and they have experienced less stress from foot traffic. Those who consistently used Aquaritin 19 and Aquaritin Defend in their greens program reported some of the best conditions in 20+ years.

    See for yourself why Aquaritin 19 is a must have in your 2023 greens program. https://aquaritinturf.com/

    Silicon (Si) has been studied and observed in a wide variety of plant species and is now included under the new definition of plant essential elements due to deficiency causing various abnormalities in plant growth and performance (Ma and Takahashi 2002; Epstein and Bloom 2003). The beneficial effects of Si are usually expressed more clearly in Si-accumulating plants under various abiotic and biotic stress conditions. 

    Silicon is effective in controlling various pests and diseases caused by both fungi and bacteria in different plant species (Bowen et al. 1992; Menzies et al. 1992; Datnoff et al. 2002). Silicon also alleviates effects on various abiotic stresses including salt stress, metal toxicity, drought stress, radiation damage, nutrient imbalance, high temperature and freezing (Takahashi 1966; Ma et al. 2001). These beneficial effects are mainly attributed to the high accumulation of silica on the tissue surface although other mechanisms have also been proposed.

    Given these insights, it’s no wonder courses all over the world have been increasingly including silicon as part of their greens programs.

     

    Aquaritin Defend uses breakthrough nanotechnology to deliver micronized silicon and 12 essential nutrients in a single formulation. It contains primary nutrients (P, K); secondary nutrients (Ca, Mg, S); micronutrients (Fe, Mn, Zn, Cu, B, Mo); silica (Si) and cobalt (Co). The particle size is between 1 and 30 nm and each nutrient is adsorbed onto nano-silica molecules, preventing them from bonding with each other, with water or the atmosphere. 

     

    Nanoparticles allow for easier fluming in the tank and micro droplets during application. Aquaritin Defend mixes easily in the tank with other fertilizers, fungicides and pesticides. It is absorbed by the plant through the leaves within a few minutes of application.

     

    Increase fertilizer, PGR and fungicide uptake by adding Aquaritin Defend to your spray tank. Regular applications of 6-8 oz every 1-2 weeks on greens and every 2-4 weeks on fairways and sports fields will enhance turf health with lower overall costs.

     

    “The turf has never been better’, is what I’m told daily from the membership… Superintendents find it hard to imagine someone has something they are not already using, but I’m glad I gave it a go so many years past. Truly makes providing Championship conditions less of a grind and more fun for our management staff."

    Aaron McCurdy

     

    In a never-ending search for better greens, Aquaritin Defend allows hard-to-deliver micronutrients to be easily absorbed by the plant, enhanced root growth and density, resistance against winter traffic and better response from fungicide, PGR and fertilizer applications.

     

    With low cost and low usage rates (just 6 oz/acre), Aquaritin Defend has been a no-brainer for many Superintendents as an ongoing addition to their greens program. See for yourself at Aquaritinturf.com

    Recently nominated and featured as “Product of the Day” on Golfdom.com, Aquaritin Water Solutions Lakes & Ponds product is revolutionizing the way golf courses, public park services and lake management firms are treating their water.

     

    Nobody wants to be fishing a ball out of murky, foul smelling, algae-filled water, but lake and pond contractors come at a huge cost. Large dredging equipment is expensive, time consuming and also risks damage to the surrounding greens. Algaecides are expensive and harmful to fish & wildlife and risk leaching into the water table. Aerators and water features are expensive and high energy consumption, setup and maintenance fees only add to that.

     

    So what’s the solution? Enter Aquaritin Lakes & Ponds.

     

    Aquaritin Lakes & Ponds uses breakthrough nanotechnology to deliver micronized silicon and 12 essential nutrients in a single formulation for exclusive growth of native diatoms. It encourages beneficial diatom growth in water bodies, effectively and naturally reducing nutrient availability for nuisance organisms, improving water clarity & eliminating foul odor. 

    Almost as importantly, one 33oz (1 liter) bottle treats 4 million gallons (15 million liters)!

    How does it work? Aquaritin Lakes & Ponds is an advanced nanoscale liquid formulation which combines a balanced mix of 13 nutrients in a single formulation, bioavailable exclusively for the native diatoms in your ponds. The particle size is between 1 and 30 nm and each nutrient is adsorbed onto nano-silica molecules preventing them from bonding with each other, with water or the atmosphere. 

    The nanonutrients in Aquaritin Lakes & Ponds are exclusively consumed by diatoms due to its silicon base, which leads to immediate and exponential growth in diatom population, rapidly consuming the nutrients that would have otherwise gone towards algae growth. As diatoms grow and photosynthesize, they sequester carbon and release oxygen into the water, increasing the dissolved oxygen content of the water and promoting better water clarity as well as:

    • Avoidance of nuisance organisms through competitive elimination

    • Reduction of sludge over time

    • Balancing of pH

    • Immediate elimination of foul odor

    Courses who started using Aquaritin Lakes & Ponds have reported over $20,000 in annual savings by ditching expensive lake contractor services. A safe, inexpensive and easy to handle product, Aquaritin Lakes & Ponds can simply be added to your tank and sprayed into your pond - no experts required.

    “We have 22.5 surface aces of tidal lakes that we manage at Longboat Key Club and have challenges on a ¼ acre stretch with private homes where there is a nutrient overload from the homes. Recently a pretty large algae bloom caused loud complaints from the home owners. We started treating this section of the lake with Aquaritin on November 21st and much to our surprise and delight it cleared up within 5 weeks!”

    John Reilly, The Resort at Longboat Key Club, Longboat Key, FL

    Improve water clarity, increase dissolved oxygen, eliminate foul odor, promote aquatic life and reduce sludge buildup by adding Aquaritin Lakes & Ponds to your 2023 program.

    So what are Diatoms?

    Diatoms are special types of algae that live inside “glass houses”; their hard outer shells are made of silicon and oxygen, the same elements that compose glass. Inside this shell is a single-celled organism that photosynthesizes, releasing oxygen. 

    In nature, diatoms are the miracle workers that keep our waterways and lakes healthy. Diatoms exist in every natural water body and have been present on earth for 200 million years. Life as we know it could not exist without them as they contribute to over 20% of the planet’s oxygen. 

    Due to their glass-like structure, they need less light to photosynthesize and therefore photosynthesize faster and earlier in the day, out-competing nuisance organisms deriving nitrogen and phosphorus from the water column.

    When diatoms grow exponentially they improve water quality and result in tangible changes like cleaner water, reduction in BOD, lower coliform levels, elimination of foul odor, reduction in mosquito colonies in water and healthier aquatic life.
