How can one liquid bionutritional product help increase plant health and reduce management costs at your course? Holganix, a natural, organic growing solution, does it by nurturing soil and plants naturally.

“Holganix is an alternative to traditional fertilizers: a compost tea that is formulated for specific uses and more residual results,” said Mike Ruscoe, manager for Ewing’s San Jose, Calif., location.

Holganix, a Bio 800+ product features a plant-based compost tea extract, with added beneficial nutrients and organic matter like soil bacteria, fungi, protozoa and nematodes. This combination of living biology can cultivate a robust and biologically diverse ecosystem in the soil.

From the fairways and greens, to tee boxes and even the driving range, Holganix is designed with the longevity of your course’s root system in mind, and can reduce requirements for watering and future chemical applications.

“Holganix is excellent for reducing thatch without having to verticut,” said Chad Mosier, manager at Ewing’s South Las Vegas, Nev., location, “and when you cut down on verticutting, you can cut down on labor costs.”

At the same time, revenues can remain unaffected as players won’t encounter management issues that affect playability on your course due to verticutting.

With its variety of beneficial nutrients and microorganisms, Holganix can provide cost-saving opportunities along with growing solutions. To learn more about how you can take a proactive approach to nourishing soil and stimulating vigorous plant growth at your course, visit your local Ewing branch.
