Abstract/Contents: | "A study was initiated by the Louisiana State Univ AgCenter to determine the influence of media incorporations of crumb rubber on accumulation of macro and micro-nutrients in leaf tissue of common bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon L.). Vegetative growth influences were also measured. Common bermudagrass was established by seeding 7.6 L containers filled with either 80% sand : 20% peat moss, 67.5% sand : 20% peat moss : 12.5% crumb rubber, 55% sand : 20% peat moss : 25% crumb rubber, or 42.5% sand : 20% peat moss : 37.5% crumb rubber. Increasing rates of crumb rubber in media significantly increased leaf tissue levels of N, K, Mn, and Zn. Levels of Zn and Mn exceeded optimum levels recommended for bermudagrass. There was no statistical difference in leaf tissue concentrations of P, Ca, Mg, Na, B, Cu, and Fe. Vegetative growth was decreased with increasing rates of crumb rubber in the media. Crumb rubber rates >12.5% (by volume) sharply reduced vegetative growth." |
