| Abstract/Contents: | Presents a study conducted at Randolph Park in Tucson, Arizona during 1966 "to compare the effects of various fertilizers, including three types of 'slow nitrogen release' materials on the color and appearance of the grass." Details methods and materials used during the experiment, noting that "urea was compared to ammonium sulfate because urea is cheaper initially, more concentrated which reduces handling problems, and is less likely to burn. Treble superphosphate plus ammonium sulfate was compared with ammonium sulfate alone to study the influence of phosphate applications on Bermudagrass at this location." Reports that "all fertilizers except ammonium sulfate with N-Serve produced better turf than the unfertilized treatment...No benefit was found from phosphate additions with ammonium sulfate." Concludes that slow release materials "did not show any lasting advantage over more common and economical materials in this study." |
