Can Honeywell Sulf-N PRO fertilizers increase turf color compared to other N materials?
Yes. In turf trials, ammonium sulfate consistently improves turf color for several reasons. First, nitrogen is the single most important nutrient that contributes to turf color. The ammonium form of nitrogen in Sulf-N PRO ammonium sulfate is less prone to environmental losses to leaching, volatilization and denitrification. As a result, more N is often retained in the root zone and available for plant uptake. The ammonium form of nitrogen also improves uptake of phosphorus, manganese and iron – three nutrients that are also associated with desirable turf color. Finally, Sulf-N PRO ammonium sulfate contains readily available sulfur, which also contributes to development of turf color.
