Foliar feeding is one of the most efficient methods of supplying nutrients. Fazio Championship Blend turf products provide available N-P-K and chelated micronutrients. Fazio Championship Blend offers the following foliar products: Amino Acids, Organic Acids, Micronutrients, N-P-K fertilizers, Plant Growth Promoting Rhizo-bacteria, and Slow Release Nitrogen products.

Fazio Championship Blend turf products translocate quickly from the young leaves to the root system. This translocation promotes a healthier plant and healthier root system. A healthier root system takes up more nutrients from the soil.

Foliar feeding maintains a nutrient balance within the plant, which may not occur strictly with soil uptake. Absorption of essential nutrients through the plants roots may at times be limited by root distribution, soil temperature, soil moisture, or soil nutrient imbalances or other factors.

One pound of foliar fed nitrogen (as urea) is equivalent to 4 pounds of soil applied nitrogen.  One pound of foliar fed magnesium is equivalent to 75 pounds of soil applied magnesium.*  Now that’s efficient!
