The active ingredient in ProForce Amigo120ME, Trinexapac-ethyl inhibits gibberellic acid biosynthesis late in the pathway. This results in a significant reduction in cellular elongation and internode length. After application, new growth has shortened internodes, more tillers, and reduced vertical growth compared to untreated turf.
Trinexapac-ethyl is rapidly absorbed by the plant’s leaves and crowns. The majority of uptake occurs within an hour of treatment. Absorption through roots is negligible, as the product is broken down in the soil environment quickly. ProForce Amigo 120ME is transported acropetally (upwards) in the xylem to the meristem, where cell elongation occurs. The systemic translocation properties of ProForce Amigo 120ME ensures even distribution of the active ingredient within the plant tissue. Full growth regulation with ProForce Amigo 120ME begins within 3-5 days of application.
