| Abstract/Contents: | States that "dormant fertilization of turf is the application of nitrogen when growth becomes insignificant with the advent of cold weather." Reviews possible pros and cons of dormant fertilization to help readers utilize this method appropriately. States that "dormant fertilization is one of the best ways of providing good-late winter and early growing season." Lists disadvantages of dormant fertilization as the need for an increase for early spring mowing and high nitrogen levels. Concludes that "dormant fertilization seems more appropriate in areas that have open winters with minimal snow cover and some growing weather." Also provides a summary regarding when to fertilize Kentucky bluegrass lawns. |
