Wolbert and Master carries the full line
the products of the Finn® Additive System. Specially blended for various hydroseeding applications and soil environments (i.e. land reclamation
projects, highway and commercial developments, golf course construction, and
professional landscape projects), The Finn® Additive System consists of Mulch
Slurry, Plant Hormones, Polymers, Seed & Fertilizer, Erosion Control Tackifier,
Soil Amendments, and a Microbial Bacteria concentrate.
Finn HLL, Hydro Liquid Lime,
is designed for adjusting the soil pH and is used by land reclamation
specialists, highway and commercial landscaping contractors, turf management
professionals, and homeowners. Easy to use, Finn HLL can be poured into your
hydroseeder® along with all other additives yielding an all at once
application.
Remember, when
compared with traditional agricultural and pelletized limestone, Finn HLL has
greater strength and is more effective in creating the soil conditions
required for successful seed germination
Tackifiers
E Tack
FINN E-Tack is a specially formulated polymer that electrochemically binds
soil and mulch particles together for all HydroSeeding mulch applications. FINN
ETack can also be used to prevent dust in non-traffic areas and will aid in
water penetration in soils low in organic matter. Used for normal to moderate
slope conditions.
HydroStik
FINN HydroStik is a special gum-based tackifier for a fast and
effective method of controlling wind and water erosion of mulch and soil.
HydroStik contains dispersion agents allowing it to mix easily into suspension
and is effective in HydroSeeding or straw tacking slurries. HydroStik also
lubricates the materials in the HydroSeeder® tank for improved spraying
performance. FINN HydroStik creates a fiber-to-soil bond. Used for normal to
moderate slope conditions.
StikPlus
StikPlus
FINN StikPlus is a combination of Finn HydroStik and Finn
FiberPlus; specially blended to provide both physical bonding of fibers and
organic tackifier characteristics. StikPlus works great with any hydraulic
mulch fiber material and disperses thoroughly in water. StikPlus uses the
glue-like bonding of HydroStik along with the mechanical bonding of FiberPlus
to help thicken and hold fiber mulch in place even on the steepest of slopes.
When added to fiber mulch, StikPlus creates a stabilized fiber matrix material
at a fraction of the cost compared to other spray-on erosion control products.
StikPlus can be metered in with existing mulch material at rates appropriate
for the specific job site conditions giving you a fluffy mulch mat which
allows oxygen and moisture to reach the soil, along with slow degradation
providing long lasting stabilization. Finn StikPlus is an excellent high
performance tackifier and the key ingredient in creating a stabilized fiber
matrix.
FiberPlus
FiberPlus
FINN FiberPlus is a specially coated synthetic fiber to
improve the tenacity and bonding of all fiber mulches, longer fiber length
provides mechanical adhesion to the soil surface. FiberPlus provides better
germination conditions for the seed, and also prevents mulch from washing
away, Fiber Plus will improve the results of every seeding job, and it is
especially effective when seeding on slopes, or shielding seed from heavy
rains.
Fertilizers
Wolbert & Master carries several
fertilizers. We offer 50 lb bags of pelletized fertilizer, as well as 25 lb
bags of concentrated powder fertilizer (water soluble). Here’s what we have to
choose from:
Pelletized 50 lb bags
19-19-19 This is a good, all-around “feeder” type
fertilizer. It is recommended several times a year, when needs dictate.
Under normal conditions, this product should last 4 to 6 weeks
18-24-12 50% SCU (Sulphur Coated Urea). This is a great
starter fertilizer. It is recommended for use when seed is applied the first
time. Under normal conditions, this product should last 4 to 6 weeks
Water soluble concentrated powder 25 lb bags
16-32-16 in 25 lb bags of water soluble, concentrated
powder. This is a hydroseeder- friendly product, as it will not wear on
equipment like a pelletized, more corrosive fertilizer will. It acts fast,
like a quick charge to the soil. It is great for planting, and will last 3 to
4 weeks.
20-20-20 in
25 lb bags of water soluble, concentrated powder. This, too is a hydroseeder-
friendly product, as it will not wear on equipment like a pelletized, more
corrosive fertilizer will. It also acts fast, like a quick charge to the
soil. It is great for planting, but is more of a feeder, and will last 3 to 4
weeks.
Soil Amendments
Finn
HydroMax (The Additive System in a Jug)
We have taken three of our
additive products (Finn HG, Finn HST, and Finn MB), and specially blended
the correct proportioned amounts of each into one 2.5 Gallon container. Due
to an outpouring of customer requests to simplify the Additive System,
HydroMax was developed. Now, one 5 Gallon case will cover one acre of
hydroseeding, all you have to do is shake and pour.
Finn HydroMax consists of plant
hormones and vitamins, which stimulate earlier germination and root
development. Also included are beneficial bacteria and microbes; they are
very effective in areas where the soil has been exposed to high levels of
environmental/mechanical stress that suppresses the natural microbial
functions of the soil. And the final ingredient is humic acid, which is a
soil amendment that benefits various types of soils. On sandy soils it
actually gives the soil particles a negative (-) charge, thus creating a
microscopic aerification that allows oxygen, moisture, and nutrient
penetration, all of which promote a healthier plant. A major problem with
any type of seed application is the leaching and availability of nutrients
when the seed actually germinates and root development takes place. Quite
often due to watering practices, the fertilizer has already leached through
the soil before the seed has germinated. With the addition of humic acid,
leaching of nutrients and moisture are greatly reduced, and sod-like results
can be achieved in 3 to 4 weeks!
Finn
Hydro-Gel
FINN HydroGel B is a polymer that is able to store water and
nutrients up to 500% its own size and weight. Once HydroGel B releases its
stored moisture and nutrients to the root system, it will replenish itself
with the next rainfall or irrigation. Finn HydroGel B is a plant watering
aid used to reduce or eliminate stress caused by a lack of moisture.
