Introducing Leaf Guard

We are very excited to launch the latest technology in dew and disease prevention; Leaf Guard™️

Leaf Guard acts as a significant asset in autumn / winter disease management, ensuring the turfgrass has reduced leaf wetness, which in turns inhibits the growth of fungal spores.

Leaf Guard operates by accelerating the removal of moisture from turfgrass leaves, facilitating quicker dry down, ensuring effective guttation and dew dispersal.

This process is crucial in preventing the accumulation of moisture on the leaf surface, a condition conducive to fungal growth.

When water droplets merge with guttation, it creates a nourishing environment for fungal pathogens. Leaf Guard acts as a significant asset in winter disease management, ensuring the turfgrass has reduced leaf wetness which in turns inhibits the growth of fungal spores.

Unlike other surfactants, Leaf Guard forms a durable, water-resistant coating by adhering directly to the leaf surface, minimising the moisture content on the turfgrass leaves.
