● Watering
● How much water
● Techniques
● Fertilization
● Fertilizer Components
● Types of Nitrogen
● Calculating Organic Mixtures
● Applying Fertilizer
● Fertilizer Problems
How Much Water is Needed
● 1 to 1.5 inches per week
● Soil appears dark leaves wet outline on
hand.
● Between 40 and 70% of soil capacity.
● Over watering is as bad as not enough
– The biggest reason non commercial
plants die in GA is over watering
● Allow for rain
How Much to Water
●On a DCGO plot one inch of water is about 20
gallons
A cubic ft =7.48 gallons
1 inch on a 4x8 ft plot is 2.67 cubic ft or
19.95 gal
●Needed between 20 to 30 gallons total per
week
●Water flow is 12 gallons per minute maximum
●Only 2 minutes at full pressure
How To Water
● Possible Methods
– Hose and nozzle aim stream at the ground
around the roots
● use appropriate pressure
– Sprinkler can water the roots
– Soaker hose place under the mulch
● Flow meters and timers are available
● If using a timer make sure all connections are
tight and don't drip.
● Avoid leaves as much as possible
When to Water
● Best time is morning shortly after due
evaporates
● Late afternoon is also good
● Try to avoid mid day when water
evaporates quickly
● Avoid late in the day when water will
remain on the leaves and encourage
fungus growth
Fertilizer Components
● Nitrogen
– Urea
– Ammonia Nitrate
– Nitrate
● Phosphate P2O2
● Potassium
● Trace Element
● Inert Ingredients
Trace Minerals
● Not present in all fertilizers
● Include: sulfur, iron, magnesium, copper and
zinc
● May need to add separately

Ammonium Nitrate
●
NH4
● Most commonly in the form (NH4)2SO4
● Absorbed by soil
● Converted by soil bacteria to NO3,Nitrate
● In the form NH4NO3 is explosive
Urea
● NH2-CO-NH2
● Form of nitrogen in some organic fertilizers
● Can be lost to volatilization
● Water soluble
Nitrate
NO3
Not absorbed into the soil
Product of microbial action on ammonium
fertilizers NH4
Can be lost to leeching
Test Report
Organic Fertilizers to Use
Calculating Fertilizer
● Take fertilizer recommendation and calculate
pounds needed of N, P and K
● Example recommendation:
● UGA recommends 30lbs 10-10-10 per 1000
sq ft approximately 1 lb 10-10-10 for a 4x8
bed
● 1.6 oz each of N, P and K(32/1000)*48
● Use 4-3-4 organic fertilizer from big box
store and bat guano
Calculation Continued
● Need N and K 40 oz (1.6 / .04)
● P .03 * 40 = 1.2 oz still need .4 oz of P
● Bat Guano 0-7-0 5.7 oz (.4/.07)
● Mix 2.5 lbs Holly Tone (40oz) with 5 ¾ oz
bat guano
Dawgs to the Rescue
● http://aesl.ces.uga.edu/soil/fertcalc
When to Fertilize● Sweet Corn
– 12” tall, one month later
● Leafy green vegetables
– 3-4 weeks after emergence
● Onions
– 3-4 weeks after emergence
● Tomatoes, peppers, and eggplants
– First fruits 1” diameter
● Cole crops (broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower)
– 2-3 weeks after transplanting then 2 wks
later
Nitrogen Deficiency
Yellowing of the
leaves,showing
first in older leaves
and lack of growth
Potassium Deficiency
Older leaves and/or
leaf edges are yellow
or brown; leaves
may be chlorotic
(yellow) and curl,
and may have
necrotic
(burned/brown)
spots, limited to
older leaves.
●Phosphorous Deficiency
older leaves to
become dark green
and have red or
purple patches in
them. Growth can be
stunted and/or the
plant can have late
flowering/maturing
fruits
Calcium Deficiency
● Stunted
● Distorted cupped
shaped leaves
● Interveinal chlorosis
● Symptoms appear
first on new growth
● Blossom end rot on
tomatoes
Magnesium Deficiency
● Yellow or white areas
between the veins of
older leaves at first
● Yellowed areas may
turn into dead spots
● Older leaves in plants
may be purple or
bronze
● Plants may be stunted
and have a yellow
appearance
Zinc Deficiency
● First become light
green.
● Leaves are
deformed, dwarfed
and crumpled
● Terminal blossoms
set pods that drop
off, delaying
maturity
Excess Nitrogen
● May run off into the
environment
● “Leggy” stems
● Delayed Maturity
● Reduced yields
● Reduced quality
– Softer
– lower nutritional
content
– less sugar

Thank you

Fertilizing and Watering

  • 1. Agenda ● Watering ● How much water ● Techniques ● Fertilization ● Fertilizer Components ● Types of Nitrogen ● Calculating Organic Mixtures ● Applying Fertilizer ● Fertilizer Problems
  • 2. How Much Water is Needed ● 1 to 1.5 inches per week ● Soil appears dark leaves wet outline on hand. ● Between 40 and 70% of soil capacity. ● Over watering is as bad as not enough – The biggest reason non commercial plants die in GA is over watering ● Allow for rain
  • 3. How Much to Water ●On a DCGO plot one inch of water is about 20 gallons A cubic ft =7.48 gallons 1 inch on a 4x8 ft plot is 2.67 cubic ft or 19.95 gal ●Needed between 20 to 30 gallons total per week ●Water flow is 12 gallons per minute maximum ●Only 2 minutes at full pressure
  • 4. How To Water ● Possible Methods – Hose and nozzle aim stream at the ground around the roots ● use appropriate pressure – Sprinkler can water the roots – Soaker hose place under the mulch ● Flow meters and timers are available ● If using a timer make sure all connections are tight and don't drip. ● Avoid leaves as much as possible
  • 5. When to Water ● Best time is morning shortly after due evaporates ● Late afternoon is also good ● Try to avoid mid day when water evaporates quickly ● Avoid late in the day when water will remain on the leaves and encourage fungus growth
  • 6. Fertilizer Components ● Nitrogen – Urea – Ammonia Nitrate – Nitrate ● Phosphate P2O2 ● Potassium ● Trace Element ● Inert Ingredients
  • 7. Trace Minerals ● Not present in all fertilizers ● Include: sulfur, iron, magnesium, copper and zinc ● May need to add separately
  • 8.
  • 9. Some Organic Fertilizers Row 1 Row 2 Row 3 Row 4 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 Column 1 Column 2 Column 3
  • 10. Ammonium Nitrate ● NH4 ● Most commonly in the form (NH4)2SO4 ● Absorbed by soil ● Converted by soil bacteria to NO3,Nitrate ● In the form NH4NO3 is explosive
  • 11. Urea ● NH2-CO-NH2 ● Form of nitrogen in some organic fertilizers ● Can be lost to volatilization ● Water soluble
  • 12. Nitrate NO3 Not absorbed into the soil Product of microbial action on ammonium fertilizers NH4 Can be lost to leeching
  • 15. Calculating Fertilizer ● Take fertilizer recommendation and calculate pounds needed of N, P and K ● Example recommendation: ● UGA recommends 30lbs 10-10-10 per 1000 sq ft approximately 1 lb 10-10-10 for a 4x8 bed ● 1.6 oz each of N, P and K(32/1000)*48 ● Use 4-3-4 organic fertilizer from big box store and bat guano
  • 16. Calculation Continued ● Need N and K 40 oz (1.6 / .04) ● P .03 * 40 = 1.2 oz still need .4 oz of P ● Bat Guano 0-7-0 5.7 oz (.4/.07) ● Mix 2.5 lbs Holly Tone (40oz) with 5 ¾ oz bat guano

  • 18.
  • 19. When to Fertilize● Sweet Corn – 12” tall, one month later ● Leafy green vegetables – 3-4 weeks after emergence ● Onions – 3-4 weeks after emergence ● Tomatoes, peppers, and eggplants – First fruits 1” diameter ● Cole crops (broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower) – 2-3 weeks after transplanting then 2 wks later
  • 20. Nitrogen Deficiency Yellowing of the leaves,showing first in older leaves and lack of growth
  • 21. Potassium Deficiency Older leaves and/or leaf edges are yellow or brown; leaves may be chlorotic (yellow) and curl, and may have necrotic (burned/brown) spots, limited to older leaves.
  • 22. ●Phosphorous Deficiency older leaves to become dark green and have red or purple patches in them. Growth can be stunted and/or the plant can have late flowering/maturing fruits
  • 23. Calcium Deficiency ● Stunted ● Distorted cupped shaped leaves ● Interveinal chlorosis ● Symptoms appear first on new growth ● Blossom end rot on tomatoes
  • 24. Magnesium Deficiency ● Yellow or white areas between the veins of older leaves at first ● Yellowed areas may turn into dead spots ● Older leaves in plants may be purple or bronze ● Plants may be stunted and have a yellow appearance
  • 25. Zinc Deficiency ● First become light green. ● Leaves are deformed, dwarfed and crumpled ● Terminal blossoms set pods that drop off, delaying maturity
  • 26. Excess Nitrogen ● May run off into the environment ● “Leggy” stems ● Delayed Maturity ● Reduced yields ● Reduced quality – Softer – lower nutritional content – less sugar
