| Question: | "Should manure be used very often during the summer as a fertilizer on putting greens?" |
|---|
| Source of Question: | Texas |
|---|
| Answer/Response: | "We advise against the use of manure on putting greens since it usually contains a large quantity of weed seeds. For fertilizing putting greens we recommend other nitrogen carriers, such as cottonseed meal, bone meal, pulverized poultry manure, and activated sludge. Organic fertilizers must be used with care during the late spring and summer as they are apt to break down rapidly during the hot weather and may stimulate more growth than is desirable. The growth of the grass can be controlled better during the summer by making lighter and more frequent applications of soluble nitrogen carriers, such as sulphate of ammonia, ammonium phosphate, and urea." |
