| Abstract/Contents: | "The experiments here to be described were undertaken to determine if bent grasses will respond to differences in soil reaction with all other experimental conditions uniform. It has been noted that the beneficial effects previously observed and ascribed to soil acidity are closely interrelated to climatic factors and are really due to factors other than soil acidity. Even the harmful effects of soil acidity may not be due to acidity itself. As knowledge concerning the behavior to be expected of each of the turf grasses under different conditions of soil and climate develops a basis will be furnished for making more specific recommendations then are at present available for an economical and efficient turf culture." Experimental methods and reasons for their use are given. Also the effects of lime on the growth tops of creeping bent, velvet bent, colonial bent and the the effect of lime on the roots; effects of magnesium oxide, effects of caustic potash, effects of hydrochloric and sulphuric [sulfuric] acids on creeping bents, velvet bents, and colonial bents, and the effects of soil fertility are all given. |
