[quote=jds303]Hi TheCount,
Products I’ve used and thought were quite good:
Eco-growth eco-wet (total eden, select nurseries, Ralphys)
Lawnporn moist (stratco, certain turf retailers, online)
Plant doctor nature’s soil wetter (twice the recommended rate though) (direct from them, lawntips store)
Aquaforce and biagra (can’t remember sorry)
Products I will use this summer which I think will be good:
Munns smart wetter (Bunnings)
Ralphys Refresh (Ralphys lawn and garden)
There are also heaps of options on the lawn enthusiast websites which are more commercially oriented but will probably be excellent and more economical.
I use soil wetter fortnightly on the sand over here in Perth. Some of these options may only be available over here too.
Cheers,

Thanks John,
You're spot on with your comment about doubling the rate for PD wetter. I found it to ineffective.
I use humic acid powder (from PD) in my spray and regularly lay down the granular form. I'm finding the benefits are amazing and the soil (I have clay based) is light and not bound tightly which really helps water penetration.
For now I just add 50ml of sugar soap ($17 for 5L) to each 100m of lawn and it is working...
Cheers,
TC.
