Goufatetlr Cwtet m As temperatures rise and re main high at this time of year, the importance of maintaining proper conditions for the growth of your lawn increases. After prolonged dry periods, soils actually become water re sistant. Try scraping your shoe across soil that has been wet ted by a fresh rain shower, for example, and you’ll find that even a 1" rainfall soaks down only about Vi inch. And after the rain stops, 60% of the water in this upper soil will evaporate in one hour. To keep the lawn green and growing requires the proper applications of fertilizer and water, to be sure, but they must be carried down into the vital root zone or about 6" deep. The removal of thatch and aeration of soil by mechan ical means helps some, but these methods should be aug mented by the use of a wetting agent. All wetting agents create a greater affinity between water and other materials. They en able the water and fertilizer to do two things: 1) penetrate through the upper crust of the soil; 2) become absorbed by the soil particles and remain there until used by the plant root. A new wetting agent, Weyer haeuser’s Water Mate, per forms both of these functions and an important additional one. Each Water Mate mole cule holds a tiny electrical charge which causes the active ingredient in the solution to attach itself to the organic mat ter found in soil It remains there over long periods of time and helps these organic par ticles to “grasp” water particles which come in contact with it.
