USGA Summary Points:Samples containing pre-determined organic matter (OM) content were successfully created, as verified by Loss on Ignition (LOI). Methods using hydrogen peroxide adapted from Leifeld and Kogel-Knabner (2001) proved to be excessively time-consuming and complicated for the practical use intended in this study. A series of methods were tested to develop a correction factor that might be used in concert with less complicated methods. Regression models based on data of the best attempt indicated excessive variation measuring OM content of standardized samples. We conclude that a rapid, practical, inexpensive, and reliable method to test OM content on golf courses but superintendents or their designee cannot be achieved using hydrogen peroxide and readily available equipment.
