Comment:
Fertilized the LTER Main Site treatment T6 all replications (5, 3, 4, 2, 1, 6) with 28% nitrogen. Applied at 16.7 gallons per acre equaling 50 lbs/A of nitrogen. Weight per gallon of 28% fertilizer is 10.67 lbs/gallon. The first 30ft micro plot (bromegrass) in northwest corner was not fertilized. The first 15ft of the second micro plot in northwest corner was not fertilized. The second 15ft of the second micro plot in northwest corner was fertilized. All reps were fertilized this way. We realized after applying fertilizer this way that we should not have fertilized the second 30ft micro plot at all (see aglog for 2020 fertilizer application. In 2020 in order to get a fertilized micro plot sample at harvest, we measured 15ft passed the second microplot into the main plot and harvest with JD 7330 and kemper head. Weather conditions at the start 9:00am partly cloudy 50 degrees F, 6.31mph northeast wind, 58.6 % humidity. Conditions at the end 11:25am partly cloudy 57 degrees F, 3.27 east wind, 39.7 % humidity.
