Foliar Information

Why Foliar Nutrition Makes Sense

The concept that the "non-root" parts of plants take up nutrients from nutrient sprays and other applications has been shown over a long period of time by Many researchers using radioactive isotopes on all nutrients to follow their entry into the plant and translocation throughout the plant.

Why Foliar Feed Turf grasses?

  • Better response with a poor root system
  • Better response without optimum soil pH
  • Good results with plants under stress
  • Eliminates the possibility of nutrient soil fixation or tie up
  • More control with less risk
  • Lower overall nutrient inputs because of increased efficiency
  • Enhanced pesticide performance
  • Less nutrient leaching past the root system
  • Less potential for ground water contamination.
  • Very best spoon feeding program for turf.
  • More economical and effective

When are adequate nutrient supplies not available from the roots or storage sites within the plant?

  • Closely mowed turf
  • Unfavorable temperatures for root development.
  • Loss of root system following spring root decline of warm season Turfgrasses.
  • During periods of tissue hardening prior to the onset of environmental stress.
  • Overseeded cool season turf, which have limited root systems in bermudagrass.
  • CEC limited rootzones.

There Is No Substitute For Scientific Expertise

Dr. Gene W.: Miller, Professor Emeritus Utah State University Logan Utah and also director of product development for Grigg Brothers, Dr. Miller has been at the forefront of research for plant nutrition for 40 years. His life work has been to better understand natural nutrient chelation, uptake, absorption and translocation processes that occur in plants in order to design and develop efficient foliar fertilizers. The result of his research and development efforts is a unique and superior foliar nutrition system from GRIGG BROTHERS
