USGA Summary Points:A column study was initiated in early 2016 and will be completed in 2017. The objectives of the study are to determine how root zone chemistry and Fe rate affect layer formation. Preliminary data show that putting greens with high pH gravel layers may be more prone to formation of cemented layers when high rates of iron are applied. Root zones with high pH sand may be less likely to form layers at the sand/gravel interface due to immobilization of Fe near the surface. In 2017-2018, soil samples will be collected from at least 50 golf courses to determine the distribution of Fe-cemented layers, and to create and validate a model to explain their formation.
