| Abstract/Contents: | "Recent studies have shown the Hydroject, a tool developed by the Toro Company that utilizes high pressure pulses of water to cultivate the soil, has promise in temporarily relieving soil compaction. Water injection cultivation (WIC) with this tool imparts less damage to the turfgrass plant and the playing surface than hollow tine cultivation. This makes cultivation by the turf manager more feasible during periods of high use and stress conditions. Since the Hydroject utilizes water it seems reasonable to assume the Hydroject could be used for injection of fertilizer nutrients. Injection of potassium, phosphorus, and nitrogen has been compared to surface (foliar) applications and will be summarized in this discussion." Topics covered are: potassium injection; phosphorus injection; and nitrogen injection. |
