Growing turf with Maxstim

Production process – application steps

• Replace DAP phosphate used at seeding with a reduced rate of non-hygroscopic phosphate

• Improve seed bed preparations to maintain an even depth for the seed and non-hygroscopic phosphate

• Maintain a seed bed fertiliser with low N, no phosphate, high potash with Magnesium and Calcium

• Apply Maxstim Agriculture+ at 10 lit/ha and Cynosa at 2 lit/ha in 200 -300 lit water immediately after sowing

• Apply herbicides as required

• Apply irrigation as and when needed to ensure germination and even emergence

• Apply Maxstim Agriculture+ at 10 lit/ha and Cynosa at 2 lit/ha in 200 lit water as the crop reached full emergence with plants having 2-3 true leaves combined with required rates of trace elements
• Apply regular applications of coated slow-release Nitrogen, K, Mg, Ca, SO3, compound fertiliser, but at a reduced rate. Approximately 15-20% reduction in applied rate during the growing season

• Apply Maxstim Agriculture+ at 10 lit/ha and Cynosa at 2 lit/ha in 200 lit water, combined with required rates of trace elements, when the crop was at a full tillering stage

• Apply irrigation as and when needed to ensure constant growth of the crop

• Apply Maxstim Agriculture+ at 10 lit/ha in 200 lit water, with required rates of trace elements. The application is made at about 3 months from the initial pre-emergent application after sowing

• Apply Cynosa at 1 lit/ha in 200 lit water with trace elements, possibly a fungicide and liquid feed. Application 2 weeks after the last Maxstim Agriculture+ application

• Apply Cynosa at 1 lit/ha in 200 lit water with trace elements, possibly a fungicide and liquid feed. Application 2 weeks after the last Cynosa application.
