Abstract/Contents: | Features James B Beard, professor emeritus of turfgrass science at Texas A&M University. Beard states that "accurate chemical soil testing depends on a collection of representative soil samples". Advises that "a 'reputable' soil-testing lab should be used to analyze turfgrass samples". Concludes by warning superintendents to avoid "'slippery' labs whose soil test interpretations are based on making money". |
