Abstract/Contents: | "Unites States Golf Association (USGA) recommended sand as the rootzone material for the construction of putting greens. Sand has very poor capacity in moisture and nutrients retention, which results in a frequent irrigation and fertilizing during the maintenance to meet the requirements of turfgrass growth. In this study, the physical and chemical properties of sand rootzone added different soil amendments (10%, V/V) were analyzed and their effects on the seed germination and seedling growth of creeping bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera) were tested. Results showed that all tested amendments improved the retentions of moisture, K+ and NO3-.Peat moss treatment significantly decreased the saturated hydraulic conductivity of sand rootzone. All tested soil amendments improved the seed germination and seedling growth of creeping bentgrass with the performance in leaf emergence, tillers per plant, growth rate, biomass and coverage. The improvement was ordered as PROFILE > PEAT MOSS > AXIS > CLITE. The effects of organic amendment (PEAT MOSS) on root biomass and length were significantly lower than that of inorganic amendments (PROFILE, AXIS and CLITE)." |
