    Got Slugs? New solution - "Slug Paint" from Eutrema

    Dr. Russell Sharp explains the history of slug control, why traditional metaldehyde was banned, and how Eutrema developed a chelated ferric phosphate gel called Slugger as a safer alternative. He reveals a new, simple use: painting a thin, long‑lasting barrier around pots and raised beds to deter slugs and snails.

    10 reasons your lawn is turning yellow — and how to fix it

    Dr. Russell Sharp of Eutrema walks through the top 10 reasons lawns and sports turf turn yellow (chlorosis), explaining the science behind the symptom and showing how common issues — drought, nutrient deficiency, compaction, scalping, blunt mower blades, fungal disease, pests, pH imbalance, pet urine, and competition from trees/weeds/moss — produce yellowing.

    Soil Structre, and an apology from Dr Sharp

He then gives a clear, practical primer on soil structure — granular (crumb) vs massive, platy, blocky and prismatic forms — how gypsum helps flocculate clay, and why you shouldn’t work or treat wet soil.

    Soil Texture - why your soil almost certainly contains clay

    Dr. Russell Sharp of Eutrema explains why most gardens and sports pitches contain some clay, how the soil texture triangle works, and why liquid gypsum helps by flocculating clay to improve drainage. He gives simple DIY tests (jar sediment test and the ribbon/ball test), recommends using soil maps or neighbor knowledge, and advises working with your soil rather than trying to change its texture. https://eutrema.co.uk/shop/soil-conditioners/liquid-gypsum/

    Biostimulants explained: boost your turf naturally

    Dr. Russell Sharp of Eutrema Ltd introduces biostimulants = substances that improve plant growth, root development, stress resistance and photosynthesis without acting as fertilizers or pesticides. He explains how they give turf an extra performance edge when nutrition and growing media are already optimal. Common types include seaweed extracts, amino acids, beneficial microbes, humic/fulvic acids, yucca and chitosan. Practical tips: low-dose “on/off” effects, avoid storing diluted mixes that can ferment, consider compost teas, and watch for changing regulations that may affect product availability.
