| Abstract/Contents: | Presents a study conducted to "determine a more precise optimal nitrogen rate for creeping bentgrass (Agrostis palustris) management in the transition zone." Details methods and materials used in the study, stating that "a two-year field study was conducted from September 2004 through September 2006 at the Clemson University Turfgrass Research Complex [in] Clemson, [South Carolina]. An L-93 creeping bentgrass putting green was maintained as it would have been under heat stress conditions in southern transition zone." Describes fertilizer treatments and measurement methods. Reports that "the form in which fertilizer was applied (liquid, granular or 50% liquid + 50% granular) did not produce significant differences in turfgrass visual quality, root-length density, percent lateral regrowth or total nonstructural carbohydrate content. Nitrogen rate, however, did have significant effects on turfgrass performance." Concludes that "results suggest a nitrogen rate of 4 to 6 pounds/1,000 square feet/year (195 to 293 kilograms/hectare/year) is optimal for creeping bentgrass shoot and root growth in heat-stressed environments, especially to enhance summer performance of L-93 creeping bentgrass." |
