• PACE is for compound fertilizers – fertilizers which contain more than one nutrient
• A unique vegetable-based resin membrane ensures the plant receives a steady dose of nitrogen, potassium and phosphorus
• Depending on the thickness of the coating, nutrients are released over different lengths of time - from 2-3 months up to 8-9 months
• When applied, pressure starts to build up within the granule, forcing nutrients through the semi-permeable vegetable coating
• The release is not influenced by soil moisture levels, pH or bacterial activity, so remains consistent over a wide range of environmental conditions
• Equally, the plant gets less nitrogen under colder weather patterns, which helps avoid aggressive growth
• This helps reduce dry matter production (i.e. grass clippings), which has an environmentally positive impact
• Furthermore, because aggressive growth is curbed, this in turn helps produce a strong, dense plant with deeper rooting all season long

PACE technology is found in the following Scotts brands:

SierrablenPlus
SierrablenPlus contains high amounts of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium controlled release coating technologies, like Poly-S and PACE

Sierrablen
Sierrablen is the larger granule version of SierrablenPlus but with all the benefits.

Sportsmaster CRF
Sportsmaster CRF is a granulated product range with normal size granules, containing an ideal mix of coated and uncoated nitrogen.
