| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses soil testing, cautioning that "results often vary between soil testing services as these typically use different extraction techniques to remove soil nutrients." Mentions several potential areas to test, including pH, soil base saturation (BS) levels, and sufficient level of available nutrients (SLAN). Concludes that "using sufficient nutrient ranges, pH, CEC [cation exhange capacity], and the balance use of other major and minor elements assures best growth and playing conditions for turfgrass." |
