| Abstract/Contents: | "Research was conducted to determine the effects of foliar and granular fertilizers on creeping bentgrass [Agrostis stolonifera var. L. palustris (Huds.) Farw. 'Penn A4'] quality and soil nutrient levels of two putting green rootzones. The hypothesis was foliar fertilizers would decrease soil nutrient levels and result in lower turfgrass quality over 3 yr compared to granular fertilizers. The fertilizer treatments were granular urea, methylene urea, and natural organic, foliar fertilizer at two rates, foliar-granular combination, and an untreated control. The two rootzones were a United States Golf Association (USGA) guideline rootzone and a sandy clay loam (58% sand, 20.5% silt, and 21.5%) native soil. The urea, methylene urea, natural organic, and foliar-granular treatments were applied at 0.5 lb N/1000 ft2/month from May through October. The foliar treatment was applied at two rates, 0.25 and 0.5 lb N/1000 ft2/month from May through October. Soil samples were collected from 2009 to 2011 and turfgrass quality was rated every 2 weeks. Turfgrass growing on native soil had consistently higher quality than turfgrass on the USGA rootzone and native soil had higher soil NO3-N, P, and K levels than the USGA rootzone. Neither the foliar, granular, or combination treatments decreased soil NO3-N, P, or K levels compared to initial soil test levels over 3 year of research. Every two weeks, applications of both the combination and foliar 2X treatments produced higher turfgrass quality than monthly methylene urea, urea, and organic treatments. Although the 0.25 lb N/1000 ft2/month foliar treatment had a lower N rate than all fertilizer treatments, it had acceptable quality throughout the research." |
