Abstract/Contents:Presents a study to determine the interactions of plant growth regulator trinexapac-ethyl (Primo MAXX) and biostimulant Astron. Concludes that "before any definitive concludes are drawn, this study should be repeated to corroborate the results. The data, however, strongly indicated that Astron can reduce the ability of Primo MAXX to suppress the foliar growth of creeping bentgrass. There are many products claiming to be biostimulants or having some attribute(s) (i.e., thatch or disease control) that will benefit turf. The fact is that most of these types of products have not been field tested on turf. Several of the companies selling these products are unwilling to provide financial support to test their compounds, but they seem to have plenty of money for advertisements."
