Professional turf and plant growers will get more ‘bang for the buck’ with two new Liquid Fence PRO Division’s EcoLogic products: APG-em organic fertilizer and SG organic root accelerator.
These products are expanding the Liquid Fence EcoLogic “green” line of eco-friendly products that are available to commercial growers, horticulturists, turf specialists and landscape professionals. These OMRI pending products are easy-to- use, biodegradable, beneficial to soil, and non-toxic to humans, animals and birds.
EcoLogic APG-em is a unique formula that contains two natural marine ingredients -organic Ecklonia maxima Kelp and Anchovy Marine Fish Emulsion - which work together to increase both yield and quality of crops, improve turf and landscape, and, most importantly, reduces costs.
“Think of it as fertilizer with a kick!” says Eric Gerhartz, Liquid Fence PRO Division director.
The addition of kelp in APG-em improves root systems to help plants resist stresses such as drought, disease, waterlogging, soil nutrient deficiency, and salinity, saving money for growers and turf specialists. The natural NPK and kelp extract provide the growth enhancement.
“Savings could be substantial,” says Gerhartz. “We estimate that simply replacing every other feeding with APG-em - or even as an augmentation- on 600 acres could equal up to $120,000 in savings.
“And since you can substitute two traditional fertilizer feedings, turf specialists with athletic fields and golf courses can save up to $200 or more per acre, per year and realize significant savings,” he says.
Non-urea based and water soluble, EcoLogic APG-em allows plants to uptake nutrients easier. “This means it can be used without the fear of nitrates leaching into the soil, especially in places that have low water tables,” says Gerhartz.
The anchovy emulsion in APG-em adds major organic plant nutrients of nitrogen, potassium and phosphate. The Kelp concentrate contains auxin-like compounds and cytokinin-like compounds, along with trace vitamins and minerals, which stimulate stronger root development and flowering, and produce healthier plants.
EcoLogic SG is the new all-natural organic root accelerator made from Ecklonia maxima Kelp. Used in agriculture for thousands of years, kelp contains more than 70 natural minerals and trace elements, vitamins, enzymes, and proteins.
Kelp helps accelerate healthy root development, which in turn increases fruiting and foliage growth. It helps to provide resistance to disease, insects and frost.
All Liquid Fence PRO products, including the new EcoLogic line, come with a 100 percent guarantee.
For best results, start applications of APG-em and SG at seedling planting, or during cutting propagation, if possible, but always during early growing season. They’re available in 2.5 Gallon, 55 Gallon and 260 Gallon concentrates.
