| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the elements and nutrients necessary for quality turf. Advises that "since the majority of turf nutritional deficiencies are associated with the major elements, it is wise to insure [ensure] that adequate and proper major elements are available to the grass plant." Lists three factors to consider in recommending the rate of lime to be applied to turf: "1) Kind of lime to be used; 2) Type of soil; and 3) The soil pH." Also discusses the four groups of nitrogen sources. States that "no one source of nitrogen is better than the other if managed properly. Many turf managers use a combination of several sources." Concludes that "heavy nitrogen fertilization of overseeded cool season grasses growing on dormant bermudagrass does not reduce the vigor of the bermudagrass the following spring." |
