Abstract/Contents:Presents a study conducted to "evaluate the effect of Advanced Microbial Solutions SuperBio SoilLife in combination with reduced rates of fertilizer on turf growth and quality." Details methods and materials used in the study, stating that "two John Deere fertilizer products (8-0-8) with and without SuperBio SoilLife were applied at three rates in a completely randomized experiment with three replications." Reports that "in general turfgrass quality ratings remained above acceptable for the entire length of the study except for one treatment on two rating dates." States that "clippings were collected seven weeks after the initial treatment, and five weeks after the second treatment. There were no significant differences among treatments on either collection date." Discusses tissue nutrient content, stating that "there were few meaningful differences among the treatments regarding tissue nutrient content on either dates." Concludes that "it appears the benefit of Soil Life is not as pronounced at the higher N [nitrogen] rates but clearly demonstrating a benefit when used with lower nutrient rates."
