UMAXX Testimonials

"I find that UMAXX carries over much longer than other fertilizers do and its stabile so it does not burn the lawns. UMAXX lasts 12 to 16 weeks and I know its not leaching away. UMAXX stays in the soil feeding the plant so and I get a nice green growth full without excessive shoot growth that you sometimes experience with non-slow release or a non-Stabilized Nitrogen fertilizers. Plus another benefit is that I don't have use a rate quite as high as I need to be with other fertilizers. I can go to 3/4 of a pound and I seem to get the same results or better results then previously. I don't have to apply as much per 1,000 sq. feet nitrogen as I do with UMAXX and still get the same results do that's a direct money in the pocket to me. UMAXX has allowed me to be competitive and its honestly the only liquid that I can afford to apply anymore."

"After applying UMAXX for the first time, I was sold. Since then it has been a steady part of my program. I mix with UMAXX all my other products. I liken UMAXX to a nitrogen I.V. I think with a little drip of UMAXX, the plant can pull the Nitrogen whenever it wants. You can put a little stress on the greens, you can run them a little drier, you can have some nematode issues because you have a little bit of Nitrogen there sp the plant can draw from when it needs it. Trying UMAXX was one of the best decisions I ever made."

"I researched many products, finally deciding on granular UMAXX from AROTAIN International. UMAXX is a highly efficient nitrogen source and keeps nitrogen in the soil in its stable, ammonium form, exactly as plants need it. Finding the right treatment was basically a big research project for me and UMAXX really impressed me. One of the first things I noticed was that the color really held. People were coming up to me, commenting on how spectacular the color is - that's a wonderful thing to hear. My experience has been overwhelmingly positive, from the UMAXX performance to the care and service we have received from AGROTAIN. We're really looking forward to UMAXX this year. I already made my UMAXX order, so I think we're ready to go."

"I find that UMAXX performs consistently between my applications, and helps me do everything I can to be environmentally friendly. With slow release products, the nitrogen is being released at a given rate whether the plant uses it or not. Whereas with StabilizedNitrogen Technology, it's locked into the soil in an available form for whenever the plant may need it. The efficiency that UMAXX provides allows me to use about twenty percent less nitrogen and still get the same response, compared to other granular products I've tried. The time between me applications has now lengthened to five to six weeks with UMAXX. UMAXX has provided a deeper green, excellent color. T he turf density has gotten better; the growth has been controlled and steady, and the overall health of the plant has resulted, in my opinion, in less disease pressure and less stress overall. I've seen far less dollar spot than I have in the past. I have received more positive feedback about the conditions of the fairways and the use of this product than I have in the previous five years. It provides an excellent lie in the fairways; the density keeps the plant growing more upright and tight, and the golfers have really responded well. I am going to continue using the UMAXX technology because I believe it's environmentally friendly. I believe it provides and promotes a healthier turf grass plant and just a more aesthetically pleasing and playable golf course."

"We put UMAXX out for the first time in a September application as recommended by our sales rep...I was truly amazed at the color response vs. competitive products we used in the past. Here in Bristol our fairways are mostly turf-type tall fescue and the color held all through the fall into the winter from only a 1/2 pound rate... I can sum it up by saying UMAXX is just fantastic... "

"I have used the UMAXX product for 3 years and have incorporated it into a regular fertility program. Fairways and tees are my primary applications but will be experimenting with UMAXX in my greens program next season. As for the past applications I could not be happier, application is smooth, no clumping and the product spreads evenly. After the application process minimal irrigation is applied, there is virtual little or no mower pick-up. Color results appear soon after application and depending on the rate, I have had consistent color for 8-10 weeks. UMAXX will remain a part of my maintenance program as long as I continue to get the impressive results."

"I applied UMAXX at a 1/2# of nitrogen rate on my fairways a week before aerifying to encourage the growing in of the aerification holes. To my delight UMAXX performed brilliantly and the aerification holes healed in faster than ever. I had several members track me down to praise me on how quickly they healed in. Because of this, UMAXX is now a staple in my fairway aerification program."

"I tried UMAXX because I wanted that flexibility of having the nitrogen and nutrients in the plant and available for an extended period of time. Especially in case I would get behind in my applications. UMAXX knocked down the disease pressure in our warmer months of July and August and I had a really nice rich dark green color on the field.
