Legacy Turf Growth Regulator (TGR) integrates patented synergistic turf growth regulator technology to reduce stem elongation and leaf blade length in perennial cool- and warm-season turfgrasses on golf courses resulting in a more compact and dense growth habit.  Legacy uniquely suppresses Gibberellic Acid (GA), the plant hormone responsible for cell elongation in most plants, which leads to its unsurpassed growth regulation.

Dual Sites of Action Provides Synergy
Legacy is the only TGR that suppresses growth by inhibiting the production of Gibberellic Acid (GA) at two different sites within the biosynthetic pathway.  By inhibiting GA production both early and late in the GA pathway, Legacy provides unparalleled GA inhibition efficiencies within the turfgrass plant.

Legacy provides both foliar and root uptake, ensuring sufficient active ingredient is translocated throughout the plant for maximum growth regulation to occur.  The dual sites of uptake and action result in less potential for initial bronzing or discoloration.  Legacy's systemic action quickly distributes the active ingredients to the growing point of the plant leading to unsurpassed growth regulation.

 

 
Legacy helps you to meet the high expectations you have for your turf by providing superior turf density, darker green color with reduced initial bronzing or discoloration, less scalping, and improved overall turf quality.

Extended Control
Legacy has shown to provide enhanced growth control when compared to other plant growth regulators.  This allows turf managers to extend their spray TGR intervals resulting in fewer treatments annually, as well as labor and fuel savings. 

Stop the Encroachment of Poa annua with Legacy
A growth regulation program using Legacy suppresses
Poa annua in cool-season turfgrasses.  Research has demonstrated that programmed applications of Legacy are very effective at suppressing Poa annua populations in cool-season turfgrasses when compared to applications of trinexapac-ethyl alone, which are shown to encourage Poa annua populations.
