Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect Blueberry dry matter production was greater at pH 4.5 than pH 6.5 in both media, especially peat.
- Mechanism At pH 4.5 in soil, manganese and aluminum toxicity likely limited blueberry growth.
- Intervention effect Iron treatments did not affect dry matter production at pH 4.5.
- Intervention effect At pH 6.5, a high chelate rate reduced blueberry growth in both media.
- Association Reduced growth was associated with lower leaf manganese, while other leaf nutrients were unaffected.
