Turf Stress Buster is a NZ first potassium silicate plus seaweed biostimulant formulation that has been developed by AgriSea in conjugation with PGG Turf. Turf Stress Buster is an excellent source of minerals and trace elements for maintaining healthy green turf grass with added protection from summer and disease stress.
The seaweed biostimulant is developed using Native seaweed species (Ecklonia radiata) using proprietary fermentation technology under AgriSea. Ecklonia radiata is a highly complex material and contains over 60 minerals and elements, 12 vitamins, 21 amino acids and simple and complex carbohydrates. AgriSea’s natural brewing process is unique and does not use heat, chemicals, freezing or dehydration to ensure the sensitive natural hormones and micro-nutrient are not denatured during the process. Turf Stress Buster deliver:
- A complex range of nutrients in a natural form
- Significant increase in root mass and length development
- Nutrient assistance to turf grass under stress
- Nutrient translocation into the plant quickly and efficiently
- Turf greening occurs - colour deepens
- Toughened plant cell walls that protects against invading pathogens and turf diseases
Benefits:
- Increasing root mass production which accelerates nutrient uptake for a dense,green, high quality sward with less bare patches.
- Increased root length and improved photosynthesis efficiencies that reduces sunburn and heat-stress enabling turf to recover quicker after drought and extreme weather events.
- Toughened plant cell walls making it difficult for infection through invading pathogen thus reducing occurrence and severity of turf disease.
- Improved soil amelioration
- Healthier/stronger leaf cells and walls
- Access to high nutrition even if previously locked
- Improve nutrient uptake of plants
- Natural wetting agent aids in control of dry patch
- Due to high nutrition a decreased incidence of disease
- When used in conjunction with fungicides will increase absorption rate through leaves
- Compatible with most pesticides and fungicides
Potential for Burn:
Low
Application Timing, Special Instructions and Rates:
- For improved turf quality use at application rate of 5L per ha and dilution rate of 1:80 for increased efficacy of any fertiliser programme.
