No phytotoxicity or growth retardation

The product works by blocking the pathogen cell’s energy production and shutting down any further spore or fungal growth. Velista moves into the turf grass leaves and roots providing excellent residual activity which is ideal for preventative applications. It is not cross resistant with other classes of chemistry.

Importantly Velista does not exhibit any growth retardant properties to turf grass and has shown no phytotoxicity in Australian and USA trials. It can therefore, be used in the middle of summer without any threat of burning or slowing of turf grass growth.
