| Answer/Response: | "There are countless mixed fertilizers on the market and it is simply out of the question for us to experiment with all of them. The net result of an enormous amount of work that we have done on putting greens is that the best of all fertilizers is either ammonium sulfate or ammonium phosphate combined with topdressing. For fairways, barnyard manure, everything considered, is usually the best fertilizer. In the absence of barnyard manure we should prefer organic fertilizers such as bone meal, cottonseed meal, fish scrap, and tankage, although good results may be expected with many of the commercial mixed fertilizers." |
