| Abstract/Contents: | "Fraise mowing and hollow-tine aerification are disruptive cultural practices that remove thatch and alter soil physical properties. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of fraise mowing and hollow-tine aerification on soil physical properties in a Cecil sandy loam (loam) and a sand capped soccer field (sand) beneath established Tifway hybrid bermudagrass (C. dactylon x C. transvaalensis Burtt. Davy). Three fraise mowing depths (0.25, 0.5, 1.0 inches) and hollow-tine aerification were applied in mid-June in two consecutive years. Turfgrass quality (TQ), thatch content, soil surface hardness, shallow soil shear strength, and gravimetric moisture content were measured in both soils. Saturated hydraulic conductivity (Ksat) was measured in the sand through mid-August each year. All fraise mowing and aerification treatments had unacceptable TQ during the study. However, combining aerification with fraise mowing did not delay bermudagrass recovery. Thatch content decreased with deeper fraise mowing depths but was unaffected by hollow-tine aerification. Immediately after treatment, Ksat was highest in the untreated control (36.5 inches hr-1) and decreased with deeper fraise mowing depths. Aerification increased Ksat throughout the study. Soil surface hardness increased with deeper fraise mowing depths in both soils, and differences between depths were more pronounced in the loam compared to the sand. Soil shear strength decreased with deeper fraise mowing depths in the sand but was unaffected in the loam. Aerification decreased surface hardness and shear strength in both soils. When practiced concurrently, fraise mowing and hollow-tine aerification were complimentary and positively affected the soil physical properties in both soils." |
