Pre-emergent herbicide with
a proven track record
Premax Hi N and Premax Hi K provide the toughest, most cost effective control of annual grassy weeds in established turf areas. It is the toughest, most cost effective control of annual grassy weeds in established turf areas.
When irrigated after application, Pendimethalin is washed from the Poly-S fertiliser granule and allowed to flow into the soil surface. Once there, it binds tightly to the soil surface and acts as a barrier against annual germination of weed seedlings. As weed seeds germinate, Premax pre-emergent herbicide is taken up through the roots to kill weeds before they establish.
Scotts Premax products stop weed germination for 8 to 10 weeks depending upon application rate. By applying at the high rate first up, then reapplying after 8 to 10 weeks at the low rate, season long control is guaranteed. Poly-S fertiliser grows healthy turf during the control period, which helps to block light from weed seeds at the soil surface.
Premax Hi N
Delivers nitrogen in controlled release form, along with a reliable dose of pre-emergent herbicide. Ideal for the seasons’ initial application
Premax Hi K*
Delivers a lower dose of controlled release nitrogen, along with the same reliable dose of pre-emergent herbicide. It’s ideal for the follow up application, or for situations where high levels of nitrogen fertiliser are not required.
