Treble superphosphate 20% P (0-46-0), MagAmp 7N-17.6P-5K (7-40-6) and Osmocote 18N-2.6P-10K (18-6-12) failed to maintain phosphorus (P) at a level of 10 ppm in peat:sand media extracts during a full growing season under nursery conditions. A single surface application of Osmocote 14N-6.2P-11.6K (14-14-14) supplied the desired P level for 18 weeks.
