Unity Turf Trial

At Maxstim, we are dedicated to science-driven agricultural innovation. Our advanced complex biostimulants are meticulously engineered with a synergistic blend of bioactive compounds to enhance plant health and performance. Beyond gathering high-quality field data, the real proof lies in the stories of growers who use our products.

Today, we proudly share an exceptional success story from Unity Sod in Ontario, where Maxstim has redefined the limits of turf production.

From seed to harvest in 6 months

Ontario turf growers typically require 24 months (or even longer) to bring a crop to market. This long cycle ties up land, complicates stock management, and limits responsiveness to market demands. However, Bernie, a grower at Unity Sod, has achieved something extraordinary:

  • Seeding date: April 2024
  • Harvest date: October 2024
  • Time to market: Just 6 months—a fraction of the traditional timeline.
    Using Maxstim, Bernie bypassed the need to over-winter crops, proving that Ontario’s turf growers can seed as late as August or September and still harvest by summer.

Science-driven growth

Maxstim for Turf is an advanced complex biostimulant crafted specifically for turf growers aiming to produce stronger, healthier, and more resilient turf. Its innovative and unique formulation delivers exceptional results, such as:

  • improved seed germination
  • increased root mass
  • enhanced plant growth and vigour
  • efficient nutrient utilisation
  • reduced inputs such as nitrogen
  • heightened resistance to abiotic stress

Transforming turf growing across Canada

Bernie’s success is significant for Canadian turf growers:

  • Shorter crop cycles: Growers can now replace aging stock within 6-12 months, optimising land use and profitability.
  • Market agility: Faster harvests mean growers can better respond to demand fluctuations and stay competitive.
  • Cost savings: Reduced maintenance and chemical use lower production costs while improving sustainability.

A new standard for turf growing

Has Ontario ever seen a 6-month turf harvest before? Highly unlikely. But with Maxstim, this is the new reality. As the turf market rebounds, growers now have a proven way to cut production times and improve efficiency without compromising quality.
