Excerpt from Notes on Five Years Experiments on Hop Manuring: Conducted at Golden Green, Hadlow, Tonbridge
For years past the supply of nitrogen, being excessive in relation to the supply of phosphates, was limited in its utility and though, when it was in the form of such slowly-acting manures as those above enumerated, the excess might often do little harm, yet, if the excessive quantity of nitrogen, unaccompanied by phosphates, were supplied in the more active form of sulphate of ammonia, or in the still more active form of nitrate of soda, the plant would naturally be encouraged by the abundance of soluble nitrogenous food to make a rapid growth that was incapable of being carried to a proper conclusion, on account of the lack of mineral food. Such spasmodic and irrational manuring might naturally be expected to produce a forced overgrowth of bine and inferior hops. Such cases, however, are in no way applicable as precedents in considering the action of soluble manures like nitrate of soda and sulphate of ammonia, when applied in conjunction with proper quantities of phosphates, potash, and.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a four-year study on the effects of nitrogen-based fertilizers on hop yields and quality, conducted by the author on a hop farm in Kent, England. The author provides a detailed description of the experimental methods, including the use of various combinations of nitrogen fertilizers with different base treatments. The results of the experiments are presented in tables and charts, and the author discusses the implications of these findings for hop growers. The author concludes that nitrate of soda can be used effectively to increase hop yields without sacrificing quality and offers practical advice on the timing and application of nitrogen fertilizers. This book provides valuable insights into an important aspect of hop cultivation and will be of interest to hop growers, agricultural scientists, and anyone interested in the history of agricultural practices.
