| Abstract/Contents: | Reports that "a two year study was conducted in 2006 and 2007 at Clemson University to evaluate the effects of wetting agent (Revolution by Aquatrols Corp.) and both liquid and granular pottassium (K) fertilization on the alleviation of summer stress associated with creeping bentgrass during summer months." Details methods and materials used in the study, stating that "the wetting agent was applied monthly from May to October each year at a rate of 6 ounces per 1,000 square feet." Conlcudes that "[the] research suggests that with proper planning and careful use, wetting agents are valuable tool turf managers can arm themselves with in the battle against bentgrass summer decline." |
