With the current weather we may be faced with developing hydrophobicity which will negatively impact turf recovery due to lack of rewetting when rains return. TriSmart is effective at correcting this and allows for quicker and more consistent recovery! 👇 💧 🌱
Not a bad day at the temporary office
That's great news
