Abstract/Contents:"Most new putting green turfs are established on high sand content soils, normally a mix of sand and peat. These soils have very low cation excange capacities, usually 4 me./100 gm or less and very low surface area. The result is these soils hold very low levels of nutrients making it difficult to raise soils tests in spite of fairly high levels of nutrient applications." There is a concern about the low levels of phosphorus found in these high sand content soils. "While these soil test correlation studies point out there is a maximum amount of nutrient which can be held in the soil, it is important to follow reasonable fertilization programs"
