Abstract/Contents: | SUMMARY: Late-season fertilization lengthens the fall green period and enhances the rate of spring green-up without stimulating excessive shoot growth, allowing the turf plant to maintain higher levels of carbohydrates than when spring/summer fertilization is used. Nitrogen applied in early spring suppresses root growth, while fall nitrogen applications have no similar negative effects on root growth. No winter damage or snow mold injury occurred as a result of late-season nitrogen applications, but thatch accumulated to a greater extent than with spring/summer fertilization. |
