ENHANCING PLANT PRODUCTIVITY BY IMPROVING THE PLANT GROWTH MEDIUM ENVIRONMENT WITH ALKYL ETHERS OF METHYL OXIRANE - OXIRANE COPOLYMER SURFACTANTS

摘要

Improved plant growth is realized especially with turf grasses by using an enhanced plant growth medium prepared by adding a bioefficacious amount of C 1- C4 alkyl ether of methyl oxirane - oxirane copolymer that, serendipitously reduces the water repellency of the medium.
