Atticus Pramaxis MEC Plant Growth Regulator (1 Gal) – Turf Growth Control & Stress Tolerance

Atticus Pramaxis MEC Plant Growth Regulator for Turf

Designed for both warm- and cool-season turfgrasses, Pramaxis MEC uses trinexapac-ethyl at 11.3% to influence growth patterns. This plant growth regulator is built on a long-standing professional turf management lineage and comes as an easy-to-handle microemulsion concentrate (MEC). It’s formulated to integrate smoothly into maintenance programs, helping turf managers achieve consistent density and turf quality without overhauling workflows.

What it does for your turf

When applied, vertical shoot growth slows, supporting a denser, more resilient turf. At the same time, the product stimulates below-ground growth, enhancing root and rhizome development for better mass and stability. These shifts can help turf stand up to mowing stress, drought, heat, and disease, while also aiding recovery after stress events. The result is turf that feels sturdier underfoot and looks uniform across a season.

• Growth control: Slowed vertical growth reduces mowing frequency and clipping load, saving time and equipment use.
• Root-friendly action: Increased below-ground growth supports a stronger root system and improved turf quality.
• Playability & appearance: Maintains uniform density and surface quality on golf courses, lawns, and athletic fields.
• Tank-mix compatibility: Compatible with many other pesticides and liquid fertilizers, reducing application trips and cleanup.
• Edging and marking: Can be used with marking agents to extend visibility timelines for delineated areas.

Practical use and best practices

Pramaxis MEC is labeled for nearly all managed turf areas, including lawns, golf courses, and athletic fields. For best results, combine applications with cultural practices such as fertilization, irrigation, drainage, mowing height, and other maintenance tasks. Regular use, aligned with your cultural program, can help delay stress and promote improved recovery after stress events, while contributing to a more even play surface.

• Broad applicability: Suitable for warm- and cool-season turfgrasses when applied per label directions.
• Management flexibility: Use as part of a broader maintenance plan to support turf density and vigor over time.
• Product lineage: The active ingredient trinexapac-ethyl has a long track record in professional turf management.
