We Look After Our Lawns From Root To Tip

Turfgrass roots have three major functions:-

• Anchorage – Roots ensure the plant stays in place, they also afford stability to the root zone.
• Absorption – Roots are the primary vehicle to provide water and nutrients to the plant.
• Biological development – It is understood that roots are the primary source for hormone synthesis such as gibberellins and cytokinins, which regulate shoot growth and development.

Factors affecting root growth

• Physical Properties of Soil
• Soil Moisture Content
• Soil Nutrient Concentration
• Aeration
• Photosynthetic (carbohydrate) supply
• Temperature
• Light
