Oars Hs

Soil Hydrating Surfactant

OARS HS, Soil Hydrating Surfactant, is a combination of the university researched, field proven, and patented organic acid redistribution system (OARS) with a multi-branched hydrating chemistry. OARS HS controls soil water repellency while providing uniform soil moisture and increased soil moisture retention.

  • Removes humic coatings from hydrophobic soil particles
  • Controls water repellency
  • Increases number of hydrating sites to improve moisture retention
  • Provides superior soil moisture uniformity
  • Increased length of activity in soil
  • Reduces drought stress
  • Consistent performance between applications to maintain adequate moisture in hard to wet soils
  • Money back guarantee

Application Rates

Golf, Lawn, and Sports Turf Apply 4 to 5 ounces per 1,000 ft² in 2 gallons of water (13 to 16 L/ha in 800 L) at 30 day intervals or as needed. After an initial 5 ounce (16 L) application, drought conditions can be best managed by applying 2 to 2.5 ounces per 1,000 ft² in 2 gallons of water (6 to 8 L/ha in 800 L) at 15 day intervals or as needed.

For extreme drought conditions with high temperatures and/or increased soil water repellency, apply 6 to 8 ounces per 1,000 ft² in 2 gallons of water (20 to 25 L/ha in 800 L) at 30 day intervals or as needed.

Irrigate with sufficient water to deliver OARS HS to the soil profile - 1/8 inch (3 mm) or more recommended.
