1.  AMP-XC™ Improves Nitrogen Uptake in Plants, Reducing Losses to Volatilization and Leaching

STUDY FINDINGS:

• Studies have demonstrated that AMP-XC™ significantly increases Nitrogen uptake efficiency in turf.
• Some states and municipalities enforce blackout periods which restrict the amount of Nitrogen that may be applied to the soil throughout the year. AMP-XC™ may still be applied* during this restriction period, helping to maximize nutrient uptake.

*Check your state and municipality for specific application restrictions.

2.  AMP-XC™ Maximizes the Absorption of Macronutrients Already in the Soil

STUDY FINDINGS:

• In all trials, AMP-XC™ approximately doubled the concentration of macronutrients extracted from dry leaf tissue.
• Plant macronutrients are essential for tissue growth, energy transfer, and fluid regulation. Plants suffering from macronutrient deficiencies (N-P-K) often experience stunted growth, curling leaves, and chlorosis (yellowing leaves).

3.  AMP-XC™ Maximizes the Absorption of Micronutrients Already in the Soil

STUDY FINDINGS:

• In all trials, AMP-XC™ approximately doubled the concentration of micronutrients extracted from dry leaf tissue.
• Plant micronutrients are essential for respiration, photosynthesis, and amino acid synthesis. Plants suffering from micronutrient deficiencies often become chlorotic.
• AMP-XC™ helps turf avoid chlorosis by stimulating root systems to mine micronutrients from the soil with maximum efficiency.

4.  AMP-XC™ Promotes Healthy Top-Growth in Turf, Not Excessive Top-Growth

STUDY FINDINGS:

• Bentgrass treated with AMP-XC™ produced clippings with more mass than untreated controls.
• Turf with under-developed root systems becomes stressed when fed heavy loads of nitrogen or supplemented with plant growth regulators (PGRs). 
• AMP-XC™ promotes the development of healthy root systems which in turn support a healthy rate of accelerated top growth.

5.  AMP-XC™ Helps Turf Maintain a Rich, Deep Green Color, Even When Nitrogen Inputs are Significantly Reduced

STUDY FINDINGS:

• Turf color in Kentucky Bluegrass was qualitatively assessed by measuring “green reflectance” using a CM1000 meter from Spectrum Technologies.

Note: Higher values indicate a deeper green color.

• Regardless of the relative nutrient fertility of the soil prior to treatment with fertilizer and AMP-XC™, turf treated with up to 40% less nitrogen in combination with an AMP-XC™ application showed virtually no reduction in color quality. (Both 20% and 40% N-reduction treatments were not statistically significantly different from the 20-0-0 urea control.)
• For golf superintendents, lawn care operators, and homeowners who must comply with nitrogen application restrictions, AMP-XC™ helps turf maintain its vibrant green sheen throughout the growing season by maximizing nitrogen uptake throughout the year.
• When used as recommended, AMP-XC™ with Iron* delivers a steady supply of EDTA iron throughout the growing season. When other lawns begin to yellow with increasing summer heat and drought, turf treated with AMP-XC™ stays greener, longer. 

*Statement pertains to AMP-XC™ products that include iron.

6.  AMP-XC™ Promotes Vigorous Root Growth and Healthy Root Systems, Even when Nitrogen Inputs are Significantly Reduced

STUDY FINDINGS:

• Studies have shown that turf treated with AMP-XC™ at only 0.7lbs N per 1000ft2 develop significantly larger root systems than controls treated with 1.0lbs N per 1000ft2 alone.
• Healthier, more well-developed root systems help turf defend against numerous biotic and abiotic stresses, including drought and herbivory from common pests.

7.  AMP-XC™ Promotes More Root Cores and More Lateral Root Hairs when used in Conjunction with an Appropriate Fertilizer Application

STUDY FINDINGS:

• Studies have shown that turf treated with fertilizer and AMP-XC™ regularly produce root systems with roughly 2/3 more mass than turf treated with fertilizer alone.
• More root cores and lateral root hairs translate to greater access to key micro and macronutrients, and beneficial soil microbes.

8.  AMP-XC™ Creates A Nutrient-Rich Growing Environment For Newly Germinating Seeds

STUDY FINDINGS:

• In identical soil media, germinating seeds treated with AMP-XC™ grow more than twice as fast, have larger tillers, develop larger root systems, and produce greener blades than germinating seeds that have received water only.
• Whether starting from seed, or transplanting sod,
• AMP-XC™ bolsters new turf to take root into its new environment.
• By adding micronutrients, microbial metabolites and humic substances to the soil, turf becomes “AMP’d Up” to thrive in most environments.

Soil Amendments, Enhanced Fertilizer and Liquid Concentrate
