Fertilized GLBRC Main Site Treatment G1, replications 3, 2, 5, and 1 only (NOT replication 4) with 0-0-60 Potash at 335 lbs/A (376 kg/Ha). The 335 lbs/A provided 201 lbs/A (226 kg/Ha) K2O to the plots. The fertilizer was applied with the JD 7420(a) tractor traveling at approximately 2-2.2 mph (B1 1500 rpm) and Gandy Orbit-Air fertilizer applicator with a 30 ft boom, connected to a Raven 6000 monitor which controlled and monitored the application. For the Gandy/Raven set-up, the following were used: Density 70 lbs/cu ft; metering wheel 1 1/4” diameter (yellow); deflector spacing 22”; meter cal number 199; air pressure was 11-12 p.s.i.; boom height approximately 36”.
