What is Activ8EXTRA used for in commercial settings?

Activ8EXTRA is a high-performance liquid fertiliser designed for professional turf, landscape, and horticultural programs. It delivers fast-acting nitrogen combined with seaweed, fish hydrolysate, humates, and blood and bone to support vigorous growth, root development, and soil microbial activity across large-scale operations.

What’s the difference between Activ8MATE and Activ8EXTRA for commercial use?

Both products support soil biology and plant performance, but Activ8EXTRA provides a higher nitrogen load, making it ideal for commercial turf, sports fields, broadacre greenspace, and any site requiring strong, leafy growth. Activ8MATE offers a more balanced nutrient profile suited to soil conditioning, year-round plant health programs, or rehabilitation of depleted soils.

How often should commercial operators apply Activ8EXTRA?

Application frequency varies depending on crop type, turf demands, soil conditions, and seasonal growth cycles. Most commercial programs use Activ8EXTRA as part of a regular feeding rotation during periods of active growth.

How much Activ8EXTRA should be applied on commercial sites?

Rates depend on the turf or crop type, environmental conditions, and specific agronomic objectives. Always follow your program guidelines and conduct small-scale testing when adjusting volumes or blends.

Is Activ8EXTRA suitable for all turf varieties?

Yes, Activ8EXTRA is used nationally on buffalo, couch, kikuyu, zoysia, and professional sports turf surfaces including stadium fields, golf course fairways, and turf farm production areas.

Can Activ8EXTRA be used across a wide range of commercial plantings?

Yes, it is suitable for leafy crops, ornamentals, trees, shrubs, turf, and general landscape applications. For phosphorus-sensitive Australian natives, trial first to assess compatibility.

Should mowing or field preparation occur before applying Activ8EXTRA?

For turf, application after mowing allows optimal foliar contact and prevents removal of product with clippings. For commercial crops or landscapes, apply according to your standard operational timing.

Does Activ8EXTRA need to be watered in?

Light irrigation or rainfall after application helps move nutrients into the soil profile and supports biological activation, especially on large commercial turf or horticultural sites.

Can Activ8EXTRA be tank-mixed for commercial spraying?

Yes, Activ8EXTRA is compatible with most liquid fertilisers and biological inputs. Avoid mixing with iron-based products and always perform a jar test before large-scale tank mixing.

Is Activ8EXTRA safe for use around the public, animals, or staff?

Yes, once the product has dried. Restrict access to treated areas until surfaces are fully dry to prevent unintended contact with active ingredients.

What ingredients are included in Activ8EXTRA?

Activ8EXTRA contains nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, essential trace elements, seaweed extract, fish hydrolysate, blood and bone, and high-quality humates including fulvic acid to support both plant and soil performance.

Can Activ8EXTRA be applied during periods of heat or environmental stress?

Yes, but apply during cooler parts of the day and ensure adequate irrigation to prevent stress. Many commercial operators use it strategically to maintain colour and growth during challenging conditions.

I started using this about a week ago after adding Nature's Soil wetter to my lawn. Wow..... What a difference it makes. My grass in responding so quickly. Before it was hard to get it to do anything. This stuff is like gold in a bottle. I had some dead and dying areas of grass but now they are lush, green and filling in again.

Type	Application Rate
Minimum dilution rate:	1:100	Apply fortnightly or when feeding is required
General application:	75-100ml/100sqm 7.5-10L per Ha
Watering Can:	20-30ml/9L *Spread evenly across the area to fertilise.
Hose‐on Bottle (Seasol/weed ‘n feed etc.) or Hortex Sprayer	Mix the minimum amount of water with the product/s to allow you to cover the required area/s. _{For example, for my front yard, using an old weed n feed hose‐on bottle, I add 100ml of each Seaweed Secrets, Activ8mate or Activ8EXTRA, and Nature's Soil Wetter, then top up with enough water to allow you to evenly cover it using the hose‐on bottle (I add about 600ml water), then evenly hose‐on.}
Pressure/Knapsack Sprayer	You need about 15 litres (a little more or less won’t hurt) of water to be applied per 100m², so take that into consideration when applying. If you have a smaller sprayer, either do several smaller applications (i.e., covering 50m² at a time and repeat until the entire area is covered), or over a larger area spray with the required amount. If you haven’t used 15 litres/100m², give a light water‐in. If using a Hortex sprayer on setting 2 without the restrictor, you shouldn’t need to add water, but if you do, just add as little amount to cover the required area.
