Dolomite and Micronutrient Fertilizer Affect Phosphorus Fate When Growing Crape Myrtle in Pine Bark

HORTSCIENCE, 55(6), 832–840.

By: J. Shreckhise*, J. Owen*, M. Eick*, A. Niemiera*, J. Altland* & B. Jackson*

author keywords: chemical speciation; controlled-release fertilizer; Lagerstroemia; mineral nutrient uptake; phosphorus fractionation; soilless substrate
TL;DR: This research suggests that amending pine bark substrate with dolomite and a sulfate-based micronutrient fertilizer should be considered a best management practice for nursery crop production. (via Semantic Scholar)

Physical and Hydraulic Properties of Commercial Pine-bark Substrate Products Used in Production of Containerized Crops

HORTSCIENCE, 53(12), 1883–1890.

By: J. Altland*, J. Owen n, B. Jackson* & J. Fields*

author keywords: aged bark; air space; dynamic physical properties; evaporative method; fresh bark; particle size; Pinus taeda; porometer; sand; static physical properties; water holding capacity
TL;DR: When comparing hydrological properties across three pine bark sources, readily available water content was unaffected; however, moisture characteristic curves (MCC) differed due to particle size distribution affecting the residual water content and subsequent shift from gravitational to either capillary or hygroscopic water.
