Increasing the rate will have a small impact on how long it lasts but it&#8217;s far more efficient to vary the length of application windows than rate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the presentation I talked about two hypothetical situations a 14 day application window and a 150 GDD application window.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/greencastadvisory.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/image-32.png?fit=900%2C270&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3091\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/greencastadvisory.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/image-33.png?fit=900%2C283&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3092\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Whilst the 14 day windows sound like a very organised person and the kind of Course Manager I aspired to be &#8211; they&#8217;re probably only hitting their optimum timings for a couple of months in the summer months. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But worse than that they are probably running the risk of moving into rebound issues or layering up applications (both of which are also really useful strategies &#8211; if additional suppression or a burst of growth is your desired outcome). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.greencast.co.uk\/news\/product-update\/primo-maxx-myths-busted\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Primo Maxx and Plant Growth Regulators click here<\/a>. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last week I did a webinar on Plant Growth Regulators&#8217;s for BIGGA which appears to have got people looking at their turf care programs.
