Description
INCLUDES: 1 gal. or 2.5 gal. of Cutrine Plus and 1 Quart Turbulence Adjuvant | Vegetable Oil and Surfactant Blend
TOGETHER THEY KILL ALGAE FASTER: Using these two products in conjunction with each other will increase the algaecides effectiveness
CUTRINE PLUS: A concentrated liquid algaecide with a wide range of labeled use sites. Contains chelated copper which stays in solution to continue controlling a broad range of algae well after application. Waters treated with this product may be used immediately for fishing, swimming, livestock or irrigating or drinking.
Turbulence Adjuvant | Vegetable Oil and Surfactant Blend:
Turbulence™ is an aquatic adjuvant that is uniquely formulated to promote consistent performance of postemergent herbicides. Turbulence aids fast spreading and uniform distribution and absorption of spray on leaf and stem surfaces through a unique blend of methylated vegetable oil and an organosilicone-surfactant system. This enhances herbicide performance potential, especially on perennial weeds and brush.

You get Cutrine Plus Liquid Algaecide (27.9% chelated copper) paired with a 1-quart Turbulence adjuvant composed of methylated vegetable oil and organosilicone surfactants. Together, they speed up algae kill and improve performance of the Algaecide.
Turbulence helps Alpine spread evenly over surface mats, improves absorption into algae, reduces drift, and helps treatment become rainproof more quickly by improving adhesion and penetration. PRO TIP: Get our Cutrine Plus Algaecide + Biocatalyst Algae Treatment Booster Package for even better, faster algae control results! It costs slightly more but it is worth the investment.
Mix Turbulence at 3–6 pints per 100 gallons of spray, or roughly 4 fluid ounces per acre. Then add Cutrine Plus based on label instructions: approximately 0.6–1.2 gallons per acre-foot, depending on algae type
Together they effectively eliminate planktonic, filamentous, and bottom-growing algae (including Chara and Nitella), as well as controlling the invasive submerged weed Hydrilla at higher rates
Yes—due to Cutrine Plus’s double-chelated copper and the adjuvant’s enhanced uptake, it performs well even in high-hardness or high-pH conditions where copper precipitates typically occur
While this combination improves absorption, if your water is high-pH, consider buffering (pH 4–6) for better results, especially on thick surface mats.
Visible reduction in planktonic and filamentous algae typically occurs within 1–2 days, and Hydrilla symptoms appear within 3–5 days. The adjuvant accelerates initial results and prevents reinfestation.
Adding the adjuvant enhances coverage and absorption—leading to faster algae kill, extended control, and reduced required product volume. It’s more efficient than using Cutrine Plus without an adjuvant. PRO TIP: Get our Cutrine Plus Algaecide + Biocatalyst Algae Treatment Booster Package for even better, faster algae control results!
As with any algaecide, wear protective gloves, eyewear, and protective clothing during mixing and application. Follow label guidance for safe and effective use.
