USGA Summary Points:Physical property changes have occurred in rootzone mixes within two growing seasons after establishment. Air-filled porosity of the field plots decreased, whereas capillary porosity increased compared to initial laboratory values. Rootzones with a capillary porosity of 30% or more appear to have lower irrigation requirements under the climatic conditions of New Jersey.
