| TurfTech BioTM Technical Data Sheet |
|
Description: TurfTech Bio consists
of multiple varieties of dormant, beneficial microbes in a powder form which is
mixed with liquid for spray application or injection into irrigation systems.
Product Purpose: The concentrated inoculum is applied to
the soil and the introduced microbes deliver numerous organic compounds. These
include nitrogen from nitrogen fixation, polysaccharides, plant growth hormones,
essential aminos and enzymes. Certain organisms help solubilize soil minerals, while
others compete in the rhizosphere with damaging fungi.

| Benefits: TurfTech Bio's beneficial microbes improve
plant health and help prevent growth of pathogenic soil fungi. Soil structure is
improved by increasing aggregation. Research shows that TurfTech Bio can reduce
fertilizer needs and dependence on chemical applications. TurfTech Bio's
concentrated formula is inexpensive for broad acre applications. |
Having a biologically active soil is like
having a mini fertilizer manufacturing plant producing small amounts of 10-5-2 on a
continuing basis. This system is worth perpetuating."

Golf Course Management, April, 1989

| Chemical Compatibility |
|
| Soil Technologies has found that TurfTech Bio cells remain viable when mixed with certain chemical products,
providing the mix is not left standing for more than 3 hours (see
chemical compatibility chart).
TurfTech Bio application should follow by two days or precede by two weeks any
application of non-compatible pesticides. |

Shelf Life: When stored under ambient conditions,
the product has a 12 month shelf life. Store in a cool, dry place. |
