Abstract/Contents: | Presents a study conducted to "determine if the presence of inorganic amendments within the root zone had an influence on leaching of salts from a putting green soil profile." Details the methods and materials used in the study, stating that "columns were built to represent a USGA-style [United States Golf Association] putting green profile and the root zones contained 20 percent by volume amendment with Axis, Ecolite, Profile or sphagnum peat." Reports that "the leaching differences are explained by the larger volume of resident saline solution in the root zone requiring greater cumulative leaching by the background solution." Concludes that "the results of this research failed to find a salinity hazard from the use of high rates of inorganic amendments within turfgrass rootzones." |
