How did you come to try Tandem Horto and Diehard Turf?
In the nearly 20 years I've been in the business, I've never experienced such a dry summer (2022). Water management is becoming very important. Added to this are the usual phytosanitary pressures... So I was curious to use these new products, all the more so as the results obtained on high-level stadiums seemed very promising!
Precisely what are these results?
I've applied the Tandem Horto and Diehard Turf protocol on 3 golf courses, with excellent results on the 2 courses where I applied Tandem Horto using small 6-hole spikes (360 holes/m2) + spike toppers followed by appropriate watering. In this way, the micro-organisms and biostimulant present in Tandem Horto are as close as possible to the rhizosphere. Low pressure means no application of phytosanitary products. On the 3rd golf course, I was only able to apply the product to the surface with an antiquated, inefficient watering system.
Review and outlook?
For next year, I plan to generalize this protocol, but also to split up the inputs as the seasons get longer and longer.
