Use the lower rate for the first application, to condition the turf at the start of the Astro 120 ME Growth Regulator program.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe recommended use rates are designed to give approximately a 50% reduction in clippings over a 4 to 6 week period. In practice the amount of growth regulation achieved will vary between situations due to environmental conditions and management practices. To some extent therefore application rates will need to be adjusted to match growing conditions, management practices and the amount of growth regulation required. Repeat applications can be made as soon as turf resumes growth or more suppression is required. Astro 120 ME Growth Regulator should be applied to actively growing turf, at least 6 hours before or after mowing. Good mowing management leading up to application is required to achieve a good quality turf surface and to obtain the best results.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eBrochure\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0559\/0007\/8260\/files\/astro120_Label.pdf?v=1637057072\" title=\"Astro 120 Plant Growth Regulator PGR\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0559\/0007\/8260\/files\/Astro_120_PGR.png?v=1772164190\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!-- 1.
