Abstract/Contents:Discusses the effects of fertilizer on bentgrass by reviewing information acquired from past studies. Indicates that in the studies "clipping N [Nitrogen] content [was used] as the primary measure of creeping bentgrass response to the fertilizers applied." References a year-long study conducted in 1988, stating that "fertilizer response measured in terms of Clipping N content peaked at about day 233, which is August 21." Addresses the type of Nitrogen to apply and includes three studies from which to draw conclusions. Suggests that "the ideal N fertilizer, yet to be created, is the one that provides near constant color ratings and clipping N contents over time." Explains that "studies designed to evaluate turfgrass response to different fertilizers have shown that color and quality ratings, clipping production and N content are all highly related to each other."
