What the Lawn Program Is
The DPH Biologicals microbial soil and turf health program is designed to transform the soil profile, manage thatch, improve water efficiency, and reduce mechanical aeration, all from a single-tank spray. On lawns it builds healthier soil and stronger, more resilient grass while pairing living biologicals with the nutrition a lawn needs through the season.
Who It Is For
The program fits residential, commercial, and parks lawn care, enabling healthier and better quality lawn through richer soil biology.
Benefits
- Improved lawn quality year-long
- Superior soil profile: lower compaction, higher biology
- Biological-organic effective thatch management
- Enhanced nutrient availability to grass roots
- Increased water efficiency
- Better disease control
- Allows reduction of mechanical (core) aeration
Application Schedule
The lawn program runs in four levels, where each level builds on the one below it. AmplAphex®, Residuce® WS, and Cal Mag Max 7-0-3 anchor every level in spring and fall, EssenAphex® joins from Better up, the Companion® Maxx Liquid Biological Fungicide from Great up, and MicroStix Prime® at the Best level.
