Question: | "On certain places of our course it is desirable to get rid of some moss and we have been told to lime the ground in order to sweeten it. Is it true that turf, particularly under trees, can be better cured of this trouble by fertilizing than by applying lime?" |
Source of Question: | Connecticut |
Answer/Response: | "Lime is not a cure for moss. Our experimental turf plots to which we have applied lime liberally have more moss than any other plots in the series. Good nitrogenous fertilizers will in most cases eliminate moss entirely or keep it decidedly in check." |
