Active Ingredients: 100 g/kg prohexadione.
Attraxor® is a plant growth regulator containing the new active substance, prohexadione. Attraxor® can be used to regulate growth of all managed amenity turf (for example: golf, links golf, sports pitches and training grounds, outfields, race courses, tennis courts, airfields etc) at a rate of 375 — 1,500 g/ha.
Attraxor® has been shown to effectively regulate growth of managed amenity turf. The active substance inhibits the giberrelic acid pathway, which results in a reduction of turf height and turf biomass. Root growth is promoted through the use of Attraxor® whilst turf colour and quality are maintained.
Prohexadione, the active substance in Attraxor® is activated in the tank by the addition of water; therefore growth regulation occurs rapidly following application of the product.
Key advantages
- Attraxor is formulated for rapid foliar uptake– plant growth regulation acts as quick as 4 hours from application.
- Superior performance against Poa annua pioneering.
- More even growth control on all species of grass plant.
- Extended regulation of growth against fine turf grass species.
Where to use
For use on managed amenity turf
When to use*
- Apply when grass is growing consistently and soil temperatures are between 7°C — 21°C
- Subsequent applications can be made every 21 days from this point
Additional information:
- Use the lowest stated water volumes when mixing with hard water
- Ideal pH of spray solution is 4.5 - 5.5
- Add Attraxor into the spray water before any other products
- Having removed the top hat filter add Attraxor directly into a spray tank containing ¾ of the final spray volume and agitate until dissolved
- Attraxor should be applied alongside 2.5 kg/ha supplementary nitrogen

- Do not irrigate for at least four hours post application
