BENEFITS OF TUFF TURF™
  • Tuff Turf is designed to be foliar applied and foliar absorbed.
  • Tuff Turf contains high levels of quickly available Potassium, which can be quickly absorbed by the plant tissue and is very effective when applied as a foliar.
  • Benefits of high Potassium levels in turfgrass plants are well documented and include enhanced resistance to disease and stress.
  • Tuff Turf contains Silicon; Facts known about Silicon that should be of importance to those who manage fine turfgrass for a living include:
  • Silicon has not been proven to be an essential mineral element for higher plants. It is however, well established as a beneficial element for the grasses.
  • Evidence exists although not yet proven that there is greater resistance to fungal attacks by turf grass well supplied with Silicon.
  • There is considerable structural rigidity of turf well supplied with Silicon. This is the primary reason for its use on putting greens. Structural rigidity may increase green speed without lowering cutting height.
  • Application of high quality foliar fertilizers containing Silicon is the best way to increase the availability of silicate to plant tissue.
  • Tuff Turf also contains organic and amino acid based chelated micronutrients; Iron, Magnesium, and Manganese at high levels.
  • Tuff Turf is environmentally friendly; The organic base used in Tuff Turf is used as a food source by both plants and microorganisms.
