As one of the most comprehensively researched organic fertiliser ranges available in today’s market, a stop by the Suståne stand at BTME 2022 is a must for anybody looking for natural solutions to plant nutrition and soil management.
BTME is now taking place in Harrogate from Tuesday 22 to Thursday 24 March 2022, with Continue to Learn taking place from Sunday 20 to Wednesday 23 March 2022, after the decision to move the date of the event from its traditional late January slot due to the on-going pandemic and impact of the new Covid-19 variant.
A particular product of interest for greenkeepers will be Suståne’s BOLSTER Liquid, with the technical team available to discuss this, and answer any questions across the three days, on stand Purple 430.
BOLSTER Liquid is a research-backed bio-stimulant, proven to help reduce both abiotic and biotic plant stress. It’s balanced formulation, including 5% Iron Chelate, 4% Humic Acid and 2% Seaweed Extract, is suited to a range of applications and has been shown to optimise conditions for seedling and turf establishment. By encouraging root growth and accelerating chlorophyll production, the plant is better prepared to cope with stress factors such as drought, adverse temperatures, parasitic nematodes and some turf diseases.
Also targeted at aiding the plant through periods of stress, particularly greens and tee maintenance or renovations, is Suståne Turf Revival 6-2-4. Turf Revival contains Suståne’s unique organic compost base - rich in humus and beneficial microbes – together with water soluble and slow-release sources of Nitrogen to enhance plant recovery without stimulating excessive yield. Ideal as a base granular feed for spring, it produces a quick green-up followed by six to eight weeks of uniform growth and long-lasting colour.
Another product of note, particularly if a wet spring is on the cards, is Soil ReGen. Soil ReGen is a soil conditioner that amends the soil to reduce compaction – increasing water, air and nutrient filtration rates. Proven to improve permeability and establishment of seedlings in existing soils, ReGen also comes into its own during construction and reclamation projects, to supply organic-rich nutrients to disturbed or depleted ground.
