AirSlit ™AirSlit™ by Southern Soils utilizes a non-broadcast, application process that features evenly spaced, concentrated and directed airflow to gently open access into the turf plant and air-injecting granular chemicals directed at the thatch/soil interface area. Southern Soils’ specialized AirSlit™ equipment applies granular chemical precisely to the target zone without broadcasting, via a controlled and directed airflow fixated on the target area, and without disturbing the soil or damaging the plant.
This environmentally advanced delivery process achieves accurate granular chemical delivery to the target zone while significantly reducing, or even eliminating, risk of spreading various organisms from one area to another, disturbing or damaging unintended organisms, as well as eliminating damage to the turf plant and soil. AirSlit™ can be used with most granular chemical products such as pesticides, herbicides & fertilizers or a combination of those products. Industry Applications Include:

AerificationPreventative maintenance is an integral part of successful golf course management, and Aerification achieves three important objectives. It relieves soil compaction, provides a method to improve the soil mixture around the highest part of a green’s roots and reduces or prevents the accumulation of excess thatch.
While there are many ways to handle Aerification, we’ve found that the most effective solution combines Soil Reliever brand aerifiers, built specifically for greens, using 2.5 by 2.5 spacing, and Cushman Core harvestors for fast and efficient cleanup. We have the ability to do everything from pencil tines, to 12 inch deeps tines, to best match the specific needs of each course we service. We understand that any tuft maintenance is a nuisance to golfers, which is why we’re perfected our method to complete an entire course effectively, typically within 6 hours. |
