PennMulch®
Seed Accelerator with Moisture Cell
Technology?
Of all the challenges a turf professional faces
getting a healthy consistent stand of turf from seed
is potentially the most frustrating. This is why
the innovators at Lebanon Turf Products are so
excited about PennMulch Seed Accelerator.
PennMulch Seed Accelerator is a breakthrough product
that is designed to help professionals get faster
better results from any seeding job.
PennMulch pellets are made of recycled paper that
breaks down naturally without robbing the soil of
nutrients. PennMulch contains no weed seeds. Many
of the weeds that contaminate straw are perennial
forage type grasses like Orchard grass or Timothy.
These weeds cannot be selectively controlled once
they invade your new turf! Unlike straw, PennMulch
will never blow off the target area into the
neighbor�s pool, and it never needs to be removed or
raked up. If we were talking about any one of the
many �knock-off� products we could stop right here.
A paper pellet alone is of little value in enhancing
a seedbed, but PennMulch is much more.
PennMulch was the first, and remains the only
product on the market with Moisture Cell
Technology?. This patent protected
technology puts super absorbent co-polymers right
into each and every PennMulch pellet. This is the
same stuff that is used to absorb moisture in baby
diapers. If you have ever picked up an infant who
accidentally gotten into the pool wearing a
disposable diaper you will appreciate the water
holding capacity of these polymers. The polymers
allow each pellet to absorb up to 400% its weight in
water. Not only do the polymers cause the pellet to
expand, they store water that would otherwise be
lost to infiltration or evaporation and release it
back to the soil.
If you consider all of the reasons seed
establishment fails, poor control of water is by far
the most fundamental. In the real world water is
also the most difficult resource to control.
Customers rarely follow watering guidelines and
Mother Nature always cooperates with a feast or
famine approach. Consider the fate of a recently
germinated seedling. Without roots it cannot access
water that may be just millimeters below it in the
soil. It is exposed to desiccating wind and baked
by the sun. Without water the life expectancy is
short, possibly just hours. Irregular, infrequent
irrigation results in wet dry cycles. The result is
often higher seedling mortality as seeds swell and
germinate, only to dry out and die hours later.
PennMulch with Moisture Cell Technology? helps to
even out wet dry cycles. Each pellet offers an
ideal site for seedlings to thrive and develop.
PennMulch is also the only product of its kind to
include a full rate of starter fertilizer so
everything you need is applied in one easy
application. Many spreader manufacturers have
developed high volume spreaders that make applying
PennMulch fast and easy. All you need to do is
prepare the seedbed as you normally would. Sew the
seed and lightly rake in for good seed-soil contact,
and spread PennMulch at the desired rate.
