Book Description
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

The Use of Composted Dairy Cow Manure as a Peat Moss Substitute in a Greenhouse Growing Substrate
Author: Wesley Dean Bannister
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Dairy cattle
Languages : en
Pages : 86
Book Description
Nutrients in animal wastes from dairy operations can leach into surface water, causing eutrophication. This research aims to determine if compost can replace peat moss in greenhouse substrates. Bedding plants were grown in five mixes. 1) 100% compost, 2) 50% compost, 3) 50% peat moss, 4) 25% compost; 25% peat moss and 5) 100% peat moss. The plants were grown to marketable size and rated for marketability. They were dried, weighed and analyzed for nitrogen and phosphorus. Plants grown in mixes including compost had weights, and nutrient levels that were equal to or higher than those grown in peat moss. Conclusion: compost is a suitable substitute for peat moss in greenhouse substrates.
