BioActive Magnet
The best Clinoptilolite for retaining water and nutrients and regulating pH in sandy soils
BioActive Magnet™ is a high quality clinoptilolite processed from volcanic material that also contains potassium and magnesium nutrients. BioActive Magnet™ increases nutrient retention and reduces fertilizer requirements in the root zone by increasing the Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC) and establishing a sustainable, balanced nutrient supply. The attached nutrients in BioActive Magnet™ attract soil microbes which use the substrate to feed on, and high microbial populations are rapidly established. BioActive Magnet™ is ideal for use in combination with Compost Tea. Moisture retention is also increased because of the porous structure of the material. BioActive Magnet™ maintains and improves the ability of the root zone to drain, provide aeration and to withstand intense traffic.
Benefits
-Helps to establish soil microbe populations
-Absorption of soluble nitrogen and potassium leads to reduced leaching of key nutrients into waterways
-A high ion-exchange capability helps to save on fertilizer costs
-Porous granules increase soil aeration resulting in healthier turf
-Improves seed germination rates
-Robust granules resist soil compaction
Composition
-Clinoptilolite granules
Application
Suitable for use throughout the year
For application to the root zone before seeding or turfing: 1–4 tonnes/ha
For application alone or mixed with top dressing after aeration (brush into root zone): 0.5–1 tonnes/ha
