| Abstract/Contents: | Presents a study conducted to "examine the establishment rate of Kentucky bluegrass post sod transplant for root mass, root strength, and tiller density." Details methods and materials used in the study, stating that "at Rutgers University APEX-10 was tested with Kentucky bluegrass seed planted in sandy loam soil with adquate and deficient phosphorus levels and measured for turf height and turf density over a 6-week period. At the Virginia Tech Turfgrass Research Center two studies were conducted...using APEX-10 and Humic Acid from leonardite on an adequately fertilized sand based root zone with an adequately fertilized sand based root zone used as the control. The chemcial properties of APEX-10 and the Leonardite were also examined." Concludes that "turfgrass height and density was generally better in solid with phosphorus applied than those deficient in phosphorus. The combination of APEX-10 further enhanced turfgrass height and density when applied in soil with deficient levels of phosphorus and when applied in soils with adequate levels of phosphorus." |
