Ornamental & Turf Crops Fertilizer Solutions

Enhance lawn vigor, flower color, and landscape quality with Terafon’s advanced nutrient programs for ornamental and turf crops.

Introduction to Ornamental & Turf Crops

Ornamental and turf crops, including lawns, ornamental gardens, sports fields, and landscape plants, require precise nutrient management to maintain aesthetic quality, color, density, and stress tolerance. Proper fertilization ensures healthy growth, vibrant flowers, and sustainable turf performance.

Introduction to Ornamental & Turf Crops

Nutrient Requirements

Major and micronutrients essential for turf and ornamental plants to maintain color, density, and stress resistance.

NutrientFunctionDeficiency SymptomsRecommended Fertilizer
Nitrogen (N)Promotes leaf growth, turf density, and vibrant foliagePale or thin grass, slow growthUrea, slow-release NPK
Phosphorus (P)Supports root establishment and flower developmentWeak roots, poor floweringDAP, high-P blends
Potassium (K)Enhances stress resistance, disease tolerance, and drought survivalWeak turf, leaf burn, lower disease toleranceMOP, K-rich NPK
Magnesium (Mg) & Calcium (Ca)Improves chlorophyll synthesis, turf color, and plant structureYellowing leaves, brittle stemsMgSO₄, lime
Boron (B) & Iron (Fe)Micronutrients for flowering, leaf greening, and overall ornamental qualityPoor bloom, chlorosisFoliar B, chelated Fe

Fertilizer Recommendations

Fertilization should match turf/ornamental growth stages to maintain aesthetics, density, and plant health.

Establishment / Planting

Apply basal NPK with P and K to support root establishment and early growth.

Growth / Maintenance

Regular N applications for turf density, K for stress tolerance, and micronutrients for vibrant foliage and flowers.

Pre-Flowering / Peak Bloom

Apply P and micronutrients to enhance flower production, turf color, and overall ornamental quality.
