Privateer SWDG Turf Surfactant is a Curative Granular Soil Surfactant
Privateer SWDG Turf Surfactant is a highly effective granular soil surfactant, engineered for superior water management and soil conditioning in turfgrass environments. This product, manufactured and designed to improve water infiltration, retention, and distribution in soils with hydrophobic conditions. Unlike liquid surfactants, Privateer SWDG comes in a granular water dispersible form, making it easy to apply with conventional spreaders and ideal for spot-treating dry or water-repellent areas.
The core mechanism of Privateer SWDG Turf Surfactant revolves around its surfactant technology, which breaks the surface tension of water, allowing it to penetrate deeper and more evenly into the root zone. This enhanced infiltration leads to better hydration of turfgrass, reduction of localized dry spots (LDS), and improved nutrient uptake. The granular carrier ensures gradual release and uniform coverage, which makes it especially useful for challenging soils or areas with inconsistent irrigation.
One of the standout features of Privateer SWDG Turf Surfactant is its versatility in curative applications. Turf managers often rely on this product during periods of drought stress or after symptoms of LDS have already appeared. When applied to affected zones, Privateer SWDG facilitates rapid rewetting of dry soil, quickly restoring moisture movement in the soil profile, helping turf recover and maintain uniform appearance and health. Because of its non-phytotoxic formulation, it is safe for use even on stressed or sensitive turf.
Privateer SWDG is especially well-suited for challenging locations, including sloped areas, mounds, bunker surrounds, and high spots that are prone to rapid drying and poor water retention. On slopes, where irrigation can often run off before penetrating, the granular format adheres to the surface and releases surfactant gradually, enabling better water absorption and retention in these hard-to-treat zones.
Privateer SWDG is compatible with most turf management programs
By maintaining moisture balance, it minimizes water waste, reduces runoff, and enhances drought resistance.
In golf courses, sports fields, and ornamental lawns, Privateer SWDG Turf Surfactant is commonly used in-season to address developing hydrophobicity. Its curative performance is notable in both cool- and warm-season grasses. Unlike some chemical-only surfactants, Ocean Organics’ formulation reduces the risk of phytotoxicity, making it safe for stressed turf.
Overall, it is a reliable, curative solution for turf professionals seeking to revitalize struggling areas, enhance soil-water dynamics, and improve turf resilience under environmental stress.
Curative Applications
- Ideal for treating localized dry spots (LDS) and drought-stressed turf
- Quickly restores water flow in soil to assist in turf recovery
- Safe for use on sensitive or stressed turf due to non-phytotoxic formulation
Best Use Locations:
- Slopes and mounded terrain where water tends to run off quickly
- Bunker faces, high spots, and edges of greens with poor water retention
- Areas with inconsistent irrigation coverage or compacted soils
Advantages of the Granular Format:
- Precise, targeted applications—great for spot treatments
- Reduced risk of runoff on sloped or uneven areas
- Slowly dissolves to release surfactant over time, enhancing longevity and effectiveness
