Abstract/Contents: | "This study was conducted on 'Park' Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.) established on a Sharpsburg silty clay loam (Type Argiudoll). Urea was applied at 0, 0.8, 1.6, 2.4, and 3.2g N/m2 in 35 ml-m-2 of distilled water. Treatments were applied at 3-week intervals beginning 29 Apr. 1980 and ending 2 Sept. 1980. Turfgrass color, quality, clipping yield, total N percentage in clippings, and tissue succulence were highest for 3.2 g N/m2. Maximum N-rate responses occurred during spring and fall and were highest 1 week after treatment. Acceptable turfgrass quality was maintained at 1.6 g N/m2 per application. Nitrogen recoveries based on clipping removal were 49%, 60%, 59%, and 59% for 0.8, 1.6, 2.4, and 3.2 g N/m2, respectively." |
