| Abstract/Contents: | "Water sources used to irrigate turfgrass areas in the arid southwestern states of the US can contain high levels of dissolved bicarbonates. As a result, unsightly lime deposits can stain leaves, soil pH can increase, and soil permeability can be reduced1. To address the problem, turfgrass managers inject sulfuric acid into the irrigation water. However, it is unclear, whether or not such an injection is useful and necessary to improve soil conditions. Sulfuric acid injection is believed to be helpful when bicarbonates are high enough to have Ca+2 and Mg+2 precipitating in the form of carbonates from the soil solution and, at the same time, Na+ content is also high to present a possible concern. However, when Na+ concentration is low, information is lacking whether or not bicarbonates alone pose a risk and if water acidification is necessary." |
