Syngenta Primo Maxx & Trimmit MultiPak

Product Description:Syngenta Primo Maxx & Trimmit MultiPak is a combination of two plant growth regulators—Paclobutrazol (Primo Maxx) and Trinexapac-ethyl (Trimmit)—designed to optimize turfgrass health and appearance. These active ingredients work together to improve turf quality by regulating the growth of grasses, promoting a more compact, dense, and uniform turf canopy. This product is commonly used in sports turf management, golf courses, lawns, and ornamental landscapes to achieve healthier turf with reduced mowing frequency.

Active Ingredients:

• Paclobutrazol (Primo Maxx): A systemic growth regulator that reduces vertical growth, enhances root development, and increases stress tolerance.

• Trinexapac-ethyl (Trimmit): A growth regulator that inhibits the production of gibberellin, reducing stem elongation and promoting lateral growth, resulting in improved turf density.

Benefits:

1. Reduced Mowing Frequency: Both Paclobutrazol and Trinexapac-ethyl work synergistically to slow vertical growth, meaning fewer mowings are required, saving time and labor costs.

2. Improved Turf Quality: Increases turf density and uniformity, giving turf a healthier, more aesthetically pleasing appearance.

3. Enhanced Stress Tolerance: Both active ingredients help improve the turf’s resistance to environmental stressors such as drought, heat, and traffic.

4. Long-Lasting Effects: This product provides sustained growth regulation, reducing the need for frequent applications.

5. Better Root Development: Paclobutrazol promotes deeper root growth, increasing the plant’s ability to withstand stress and reducing the potential for scalping.

Application Rates:

• Primo Maxx (Paclobutrazol):

  • Golf Course Greens: Apply at the rate of 0.125 fl. oz. per 1000 sq. ft.

  • Golf Course Fairways & Tees (cut at 0.5" or less): Apply at rates of 0.25 – 0.5 fl. oz. per 1000 sq. ft.

  • Suppression of Basal Rot Anthracnose: Apply at rates of 0.1 - 0.2 fl. oz. per 1000 sq. ft. every 7 - 14 days. Use lower rates when seedheads are present.)
    

• Trimmit (Trinexapac-ethyl):

  • Cool Season Grasses (except putting greens): Apply at 0.25 to 0.5 lbs. ai/acre

  • Bentgrass Putting Greens: Apply at 0.10 to 0.25 lbs. ai/acre

  • For Best Results: Apply using 2-3 gallons of water per 1,000 sq. ft. for even coverage.

  • Reapply every 6-8 weeks depending on growth conditions.

Restrictions:

1. Temperature Restrictions: Do not apply during excessively hot or freezing weather conditions as turfgrass is more sensitive to growth regulation during these times.

2. Application Interval: Avoid applications more frequently than every 3-4 weeks to prevent overstimulation of plant growth.

3. Non-Tolerant Species: Not all turfgrass species respond the same to these growth regulators. Avoid use on non-tolerant varieties without testing first.

4. Reentry Interval (REI): Typically, a 12-hour REI applies after application, ensuring minimal exposure to workers.

Safety Precautions:

1. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): When applying, wear long-sleeved shirts, long pants, shoes, socks, and gloves. In case of direct contact with skin, wash immediately with soap and water.

2. Environmental Safety: Prevent run-off into water sources by following label instructions carefully. Do not apply directly to water or wetlands.

3. Storage: Store the product in a cool, dry place away from children and pets. Keep the container tightly closed when not in use.

4. Emergency Procedures: In case of accidental ingestion, inhalation, or skin contact, follow the emergency first aid instructions on the product label. Always consult a medical professional if symptoms persist.

By combining the growth-regulating effects of Paclobutrazol and Trinexapac-ethyl, Syngenta Primo Maxx & Trimmit MultiPak offers efficient turf management solutions to produce lush, attractive turf while reducing maintenance time and labor.
