LongLast

High performance, extended life, mini-prill fertilisers that have been specially formulated for UK conditions and for use on close-mown areas such as bowling greens and gold greens.  LongLast fertilisers contain UMAXX, the stabilised nitrogen source which feeds plants for up to 16 weeks.

LongLast mini-prills are rapidly dissolved, either by soil moisture or by watering in, ensuring that nutrients reach the rootzone and are not removed by mowing. The fact that the prills have been designed to disappear into the rootzone rapidly prevents interruptions to play or regular maintenance activities.

The free-flowing mini granules are easy to apply and economical in use, with a single 25kg bag covering 1000 square metres of turf.

LongLast is available in two NPK analyses 24-5-12 and 20-0-20.

LongLast 24-5-12

A fine turf fertiliser for spring and summer use that combines the benefits of standard release fertilisers with UMAXX slow release nitrogen.  The rapid solubility of the mini-prill ensures that expensive nutrient is not removed by mower groomers and the absence of fertiliser granules on the turf surface means that golfers and bowlers can continue to play without detriment to their game.
