Road salt injury to Kentucky Bluegrass
Study has shown that sufficient rock salt was applied to park roads to cause death of bluegrass turf along roadsides; with increasing use of sodium chloride, decline and death of vegetation can be expected to continue; qualitative chemical method for determining sodium chloride injury as proposed by author appears satisfactory for determining rock salt injury; however, there appears to be no reason for testing root tissue for chlorides since quantity of chlorides in soil is better indicator of probable cause of injury; more accurate results are obtained when tests are made soon after injury occurs.
