Description
Beneblok is a liquid turf probiotic designed to foster a healthy root zone ecology and boost turf’s resistance to environmental stresses. This product aids in balancing microbial communities and populates the root zone with beneficial communities.
Once activated, microbes release metabolites such as volatile fatty acids (VFA’s), organic acids and enzymes into the soil matrix. This aids in releasing locked-up minerals and boosts plant immune functions. Beneficial microbes work up to 5X faster than undesirable organisms and outcompete for space and resources.
“Beneblok and Restor8 are really user-friendly broad-spectrum biologicals. No refrigeration, no brewing or time-sensitive application windows, no special equipment. Really easy to train my staff to use it; just drop it in the tank, and it works.”
Reed Grosart, Superintendent, Pagoda Ridge Golf Course.
As you can see in the illustrations below, simply filling the space left by a chemical application prevents the vacuum effect. However, the unintended consequence of fighting the vacuum effect with more chemistry creates a dependency cycle. Disease organisms can adapt to increased applications, leading to resistance and undermining the effectiveness of the very tools we so considerably require in performance turfgrass management. Implementing a biological approach will help fight against disease chemical resistance, provide vigorous roots, cycle tied up nutrients, and compete for resources with diseases.
Implementing a biological approach in turfgrass management should not be seen as a replacement for chemical pesticide use; in fact, we make no pesticidal claims. Instead, we recommend using in conjunction with and rotation with conventional practices. The difference between Broadspec technology and a biopesticide is like inviting a gardener to dinner over a samurai warrior. They eat the food and take up a seat. Therefore, Broadspec Technology incorporated in BeneBlok is just another tool for turfgrass managers. Albeit, a darn good one.
