Abstract

Abstract A gasifier residue evaluated in combination with Canadian sphagnum peat moss (P), coarse sand (S), and/or pine bark (B) produced no deficiency or toxicity symptoms when used as a container media component for growth of Rhododendron cv. Redwing, Buxus microphylla Siebold and Zucc. var. Japonica, and Juniperus horizontalis Moench cv. Plumosa. Compared to the standard BPS, the BRS and BPR media yielded a larger boxwood. Juniper and azalea growth responses were similar on BPS and BRS. The present cost of the BRS medium is less than 1/3 that of the standard BPS medium.
