SePRO has launched a new web site, turf.sepro.com; an expanded, product specific micro site within www.sepro.com, that highlights the benefits of SePRO’s turf plant growth regulators (PGRs); Cutless 50W, Cutless MEC and Legacy. Golf course superintendents rely on Cutless and Legacy for turfgrass enhancement, shoot growth suppression, Poa annua conversion and many other benefits, which improve the playability of turfgrass. An often-overlooked benefit of turf PGRs is the potential for economic savings following a season-long fairway program.
The turf.sepro.com site is a dual micro site providing turf PGR users access to information on either Cutless or Legacy. Each site introduces a variety of enhanced features such as product specific application rate information, application instructions, industry research results, product performance images and video testimonials made by golf course superintendents from all around the country. Specific use directions for the Cutless Poa annua Reduction Program highlight the Cutless site. “Cutless is widely known as the leading solution for Poa annua conversion in cool-season turf and this web site will further add to the information and knowledge of using Cutless successfully.” says Todd Bunnell, Ph.D., Golf Market Manager.
The Legacy site introduces the first online interactive economic savings calculator where superintendents can input their own specifics, related to their golf course situation, and calculate the potential direct cost savings realized, (savings over and above the purchase costs of Legacy) when using Legacy during a season-long program on fairways. “Many golf course superintendents have the perception that they can’t afford a turf PGR on their fairways due to product and application costs. This calculator will help them realize that using Legacy on cool- and warm-season grass fairways can actually save them money, as opposed to not treating with a PGR.” adds Todd Bunnell. “The savings with Legacy are realized by reducing labor and fuel related to mowing fairways and removing/blowing clippings following mowing. The reality is that superintendents can achieve all the savings benefits of using Legacy and in addition dramatically improve the quality and playability of their course at the same time.”
