| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses various factors that affect plant growth, including soil, soil pH, soil moisture, soil temperature, and soil depth. Also describes rainfall, light, air temperature, wind, disease, insects, and traffic as factors that influence the growth of plants. Concludes that any "man responsible for growing turfgrass, whether it is the homeowner, golf course superintendent, or sod producer, needs to be aware of the primary effects of the many plant growth factors and how he can manipulate them to keep any one factor from being limiting to his plants." |
