Why Tree Growth Regulator is also a Tree Health Booster

Tree Growth Regulator (TGR) is the industry's favorite tool for regulating tree size. One application reduces tree growth by up to 60-80% over 3 years, reducing pruning needs and saving lots of time & money!But did you know that TGR also boosts tree health? By reducing growth, trees now have more energy and resources to grow stronger and healthier. Healthy trees add more value and need fewer corrective treatments in the long run.Here are the TOP 3 ways TGR boosts tree health!

1. GREENER CANOPIES

By reducing growth, TGR allows trees to spend more resources on creating chlorophyll. Chlorophyll gives leaves their beautiful green color and also makes sugars to feed the tree. Not only does the tree look better, it has more sugars for defense and health maintenance.

2. HEALTHIER ROOTS

TGR reduces branch and trunk growth above ground, but it actually increases fine root growth below ground. Don't worry - these fine roots absorb water & nutrients for the tree and aren't the type to destruct your sidewalks. With better absorption, trees make more efficient use of irrigation and fertilization.

3. MORE RESISTANCE AGAINST DROUGHT, DISEASE, & PESTS

TGR encourages trees to grow thicker leaves. Insects and pathogens have a tougher time attacking thick leaves. The thicker leaves also reduce water evaporation. When this is combined with greener leaves and more fine roots, trees are better equipped to fight drought, disease, and pests!
