Chapter synopsis:

This chapter reviews the use of biostimulants in turfgrass management. It first identifies the different types of biostimulants that can be used for turfgrass, focusing on phytohormones, biopolymers, protein hydrolysates and other nitrogen-containing compounds, botanical and synthetic bioactive compounds. The chapter also highlights the possibility of using humic substances, organics, inorganics/minerals, biologicals/microbials, soil surfactants and other naturally derived or synthetic bioactive compounds.
