| Abstract/Contents: | "There is considerable environmental concern over nitrogen (N) contamination from turfgrass fertilizers. Slow release N sources have been promoted as an application method as a strategy to improve turfgrass performance and reduce potential adverse effects from N fertilization. The objective of the study was to evaluate the response of turfgrass to soluble and controlled-release N sources. In field and greenhouse studies over two consecutive years, turf response was evaluated for new and standard controlled-release N and standard slow-release N sources. Five N sources were compared in 2000, and 11 N sources were compared in 2001 over 4 month cycles at a rate of 7.5 g m-2 for their effect on bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon x C. transvaalensis Burt-Davvy cv. Tifway) grown on Hallandale fine sand (Siliceous, hyperthermic Lythic Psammaquent). Simultaneous greenhouse and field trials were conducted to determine N retention over time. Evaluations were based on visual turfgrass color ratings, clipping weight, and N retention were higly significantly (P<0.01) affected by N source. Generally, controlled and slow release N sources had greater clipping weights than soluble sources and provided longer term N. Although no consistent differences were found among controlled-release N sources all products tested produced acceptable turfgrass color and vigor giving turf managers a wide array of choices for turfgrass maintenance." |
