Abstract/Contents:Discusses plant growth regulators (PGRs) and their potential ability to reduce string trimming. Explains that "different PGRs do different things, but their primary purpose is to slow down a plant's vertical growth and increase its lateral growth by altering its hormones." Suggests that "one application in the spring and one in the fall should suffice for most areas." Concludes that "PGRs make doing more with less a feasible task."
