| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses a trial designed to "...determine the effectiveness of Osmocote Plus 15-9-12, Osmocote Pro 19-5-8 and Scotts 35-0-0 in reducing mix pH increase ('creep') for three species of deciduous shrubs grown in comtainers." Reports that, "based on research reported in literature, an adequate amount of all required nutrients in the mix is the best way to ensure good growth, regardless of pH." |
