| Abstract/Contents: | Describes a study designed "to evaluate natural organic fertilizers and cytokinin-like hormonal products derived from sea plants (kelp) as potential products to help minimize this root loss and therefore increase turf quality." Results indicate that "there were no substantial increases in turfgrass quality or root growth that could be specifically associated with the use of natural organic fertilizers or cytokinin-like hormonal products." |
