Aqueous solutions of a fortified SEW (regular extract + proprietary formulation of humic acid, carbohydrates, amino acids, peptides, saponins, betaines, GABA) (ATAN SoF® 0-8 L/ha) were drench-applied in February, when the turf was water-stressed. Aesthetic quality (AQ) was determined weekly for two months using a visual scale of 0 (dead turf) to 9 (excellent aesthetic quality) based on color and vigor. Significant differences in AQ were found for several SEW treatments three weeks after application, and effects were consistent thought the dry season. Best results were obtained with rates of 4 to 8 L SEW/ha." Language: English References: 0 Note: This item is an abstract only!
