| Abstract/Contents: | "Results from a series of nitrogen fertilization experiments have shown that the improvement of turf quality by nitrogen fertilization persists over a long period than does the improved color. Laboratory tests on ryegrass turf cultures and field tests using a bentgrass putting green, common bluegrass fairway, Meyer zoysia lawn, and Merion bluegrass lawn have shown the differential response from levels of various types of nitrogen carriers. Urea, corn gluten, activated sewage sludge, calcium Cyanamid, and various commercial and experimental ureaformaldehyde preparations, have been used at levels up to as high as 20 pounds of nitrogen per 1,000 square feet per season. The effect of the above treatments on turf quality as measured by clipping height, clipping weight, density, vertical turf support, color and visual estimates, have been studied. The apparent efficiency of the various nitrogen carriers have been studied by measuring nitrogen recovery rates. With no leaching, the soluble materials and natural organics have demonstrated a long residual effect. Under field conditions, several of the ureaformaldehyde materials have shown superior residual effects during the summer only at the higher rates and when the turf was kept actively growing." |
