Key Points of Mantle®
- Water-soluble manganese, zinc and magnesium with Harpin.
- Harpin Plant Elicitor stimulates plants natural defence mechanisms.
- For foliar application (uptake mechanism of the Harpin protein).
- Manganese has a potential two-fold benefit to the grass plant.
- Tank-mixable with fungicides, liquid fertilisers and biostimulants.
The 20-20-30 Tankmix…
Headland Amenity have been pioneering research work since 2007, carrying out independent trials at the S.T.R.I using a combination of products to minimise Microdochium nivale. Our strategy featuring the 20-20-30 tankmix of Turfite Elite, Liquid Turf Hardener and Seamac Proturf Fe has been continuously refined and improved with the recent addition of Mantle®, enhancing efficacy.

- Applications of manganese can reduce the ability of some root pathogens to damage the grass plant. As well as an important component of two enzymes, manganese is an activating co-factor for a large number of enzymes required for key functions in the grass plant including lignin synthesis in roots.
- Mantle® is for foliar application only, due to the uptake mechanism of the Harpin protein. Suitable for use all year round for application to fine and outfield turf.
- Do not apply to drought-stressed turf or during frost.
- May be applied via boom-mounted, pedestrian or knapsack sprayers.
- Apply to a dry leaf, without watering-in.
- Add Mantle® to a part-filled spray tank and maintain agitation as additional water is added. Mix for a minimum of 10-15 minutes to ensure the components are fully dissolved before applying. Use a coarse mesh, inline filter for maximum solubility when using water-soluble materials.
- Always add Mantle® to a half-filled spray tank first in the tank mix sequence and ensure it is under agitation whilst adding. Using warm water greatly aids the speed of solubility. Do not mix Mantle® with alkaline pH materials.
If using Mantle® with the 20-20-30 mix, the tank mix order should be:
- Mantle®
- Seamac Proturf Fe
- Liquid Turf Hardener
- Turfite
