Nitrogen is essential to turfgrass performance—it drives growth, colour, and density. But too much or too little, applied at the wrong time or in the wrong form, can do more harm than good. Spikes of growth followed by periods of stress are all too common with traditional nitrogen sources, especially on fine turf where consistency is king.
Introduction:
Mechanical thatch control is costly, disruptive, and often short-lived. What if you could eliminate the problem biologically — and improve turf performance at the same time?
The BioActive Solution
By combining BioActive Thatch Reduce with BioActive Molturf, you unlock a powerful natural process:
The Result?
✔ Less thatch
✔ Healthier soil
✔ Stronger turf
✔ Better surface performance
Spray It, Don’t Scarify It
Both products are easily mixed and sprayed – no mechanical disruption, no follow-up repair, and no downtime.
And at just £40 per green per application (for Bowls Central Academy Members), this is the most cost-effective, long-term thatch control method available today.

Applied monthly during the growing season at label rates, BioActive Yucca keeps moisture availability in the optimal zone for healthy, stress-resilient turf. It can also be used strategically before or during periods of drought to buffer the turf against rapid desiccation.
Mycorrhizal fungi and turf health go hand in hand. The symbiotic relationships that exist between our turf grass plants and soil fungi are critical to producing a high performance, perennial grass dominated sward. Here we look at the benefits of mycorrhizal relationships in turf and the techniques greenkeepers can employ to encourage them.
Maintaining a consistently high-performance bowling green is never about one magic product or technique. It’s the result of accumulated marginal gains—careful attention to soil health, organic matter management, air and water movement, and a programme that supports the biology underpinning the entire turf system.
At the heart of this biological approach is a class of products known as biostimulants. One of the most quietly effective formulations in our arsenal is BioActive Formula Green.
