Lawn mycorrhizais a product that has existed for several years, although it has not yet managed to gain much popularity. It is a pity, because the effects of its use are blessing for lawns in home gardens and allotments, especially those growing on weaker soils and exposed to conditions unfavorable to grass growth. See the effects oflawn mycorrhizaand how to apply it correctly.
Lawn mycorrhiza
What is mycorrhiza?
Mycorrhizais a mutually beneficial coexistence of plants and specific symbiotic fungi, making direct contact with plant roots.Mycorrhizal fungi found in the ground grow over the roots of plants, increasing their absorbent surface. As a result, the plant gains better access to water and nutrients in the ground.
Is it worth using mycorrhiza on lawns?
Like most other plants, grasses also benefit from the phenomenon of mycorrhiza.The use of mycorrhiza on the lawn allows for:
- faster grass growth,
- better turf development, compaction and coloration,
- making the lawn resistant to diseases,
- to make the lawn more resistant to drought and irregular watering.
Unfortunatelymost lawns in gardens and allotments may suffer from a lack of mycorrhizaThis is because mycorrhizal fungi are very sensitive to environmental pollution, especially to using too high doses mineral fertilizers and fungicides.There will also be no mycorrhiza in the ground after the construction of the house and under the lawns established on new development investments. Therefore, we must introduce mycorrhiza under the lawn ourselves, usinglawn mycorrhiza vaccine
What mycorrhiza should be applied to the lawn?
The best choice seems to be the TURFCOMP lawn mycorrhiza, which, apart from mycorrhizal fungi, also contains substances that facilitate the development of mycorrhiza, a starting dose of fertilizer and a hydrogel that helps to maintain moisture under the lawn.
TURFCOMP® consists of 3 ingredients that create a perfect whole:
- Mycorrhiza for grass(6 different types of mycorrhizal fungi isolated in the best natural sites, where they inhabit grass roots, determining its resistance, he alth and appearance).
- Natural, slow-acting fertilizer , gradually provides the grass with the necessary nutrients during the initial growth period.
- A granular hydrogelthat retains water and then releases it to the grass during dry periods, making the turf much more resistant to drought and requiring less watering.The hydrogel absorbs and gives off water for several years, after which it undergoes natural biodegradation.
How to use TURFCOMP® mycorrhiza on a lawn?
TURFCOMP® is designed for lawns in gardens as well as for sports turfs (sports fields, golf courses, etc.).TURFCOMP® lawn mycorrhiza can be used in 2 ways :
- Before setting up a lawn, , spread the contents of the package evenly over the area where the lawn will be installed, and then cover it with 3 cm. a layer of earth and sow grass seeds. The dose depends on the method of use. 100 g / m2 is enough for lawns. For sports fields up to 300 g / m².
- For already growing lawn . Mycorrhiza can also be applied during lawn aeration, in this case we use 50 - 150 g / m². The mycorrhiza must reach the root zone.
