(carbon-to-nitrogen ratio is 500:1 for PTS and 50:1 for PB) because differences in dry weight are not present when fertilizer was applied with one exception—vinca at 1 lb/1000 ft 2 in 2006. However, N immobilization would not explain why marigold growth

the occurrence of human pathogens ( USDA, 2002 ). The National Organic Standards require raw composting materials to have a carbon-to-nitrogen ratio between 25:1 and 40:1. Temperature during composting must be maintained between 131 and 170 °F for 3 d

hydrocarbons are hydrophobic and coat soil particles while also increasing carbon-to-nitrogen ratios in the soil that limit plant nutrient availability ( Aislabie et al., 2004 ; Everett, 1979 ). Conventional petroleum-based hydraulic fluids leaks often result
