Why use TurfGuard?
Creating an amenity sward can be time consuming and expensive, consequently Turf professionals seek to ensure the maximum chance of success by preparation and seed selection. TurfGuard creates a third line of defence from the moment the seed is sown by protecting and nourishing the seedlings. In field trials, using TurfGuard substantially increases root mass and shoot density while improving disease resistance leading to a greatly enhanced sward. This improved establishment leads to reduced invasion of Poa Annua and weeds and a shorter time from sowing to play
What is TurfGuard?
TurfGuard is a specific strain of the soil bacteria Bacillus Subtilis, which is commonly found in the soil, on roots and on leaves. Applied to grass seed its spores germinate and rapidly colonise the root system of the new plant. This provides a barrier to soil pathogens while producing beneficial growth hormones that assist the grass plant in numerous ways.
