Two SePRO PGRs now labeled for non-golf turf

Date:09-02-2022

SePRO announced the expansion of two of its industry-leading plant growth regulators for use on non-golf turf, including sports, residential, commercial and other managed turf areas.

Cutless MEC and Legacy were recently approved by the U.S. EPA to be used on non-golf turf, including sports fields. These PGRs join another SePRO product, Cutless 50W, in the non-golf turf space.

″SePRO is excited to bring the benefits of our plant growth regulators to the sports turf market, with Legacy and Cutless MEC,″ SePRO T&O portfolio leader Casey Zeller said. ″Sports field managers continue to look for solutions to regulate and enhance their turf, while saving time, money and labor.″

Cutless MEC is recognized in the golf market as a top growth regulator for turf quality enhancement and Poa annua conversion. Cutless MEC can be used as a standalone option or tank mixed with other PGRs for enhanced growth suppression. Legacy is designed to provide consistent growth regulation, while reducing the ″rebound effect.″ The all-in-one PGR also provides enhanced growth control, resulting in fewer treatments throughout the season.

″Fewer mowings and clippings can reduce labor by up to 50 percent, which is important in today’s labor market,″ SePRO technical specialist Joe Lynch said.

The two products are currently being submitted for registration in individual states. Cutless MEC and Legacy are available in 64-ounce and 2.5-gallon package sizes.
