Abstract/Contents: | "Turfgrass establishment on sand rootzones can be challenging. The original objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of rootzone mixtures and establishment treatment on soil physical, chemical, and biological properties with time. Reported here are serendipitous findings relating Pythium foliar blight injury associated with applied treatments. USGA specification putting greens were constructed sequentially from 1997 to 1999. Treatments included two rootzones (80% sand and 20% sphagnum peat, and 80% sand 15% sphagnum peat and 5% Tomek silty clay loam v:v) and two establishment treatments (accelerated and controlled). Relative to the controlled treatment, the accelerated treatment received 2.6, 3.0, and 2.6 fold N, P, and K, respectively. Greens were established with Providence creeping bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera L.). Pythium foliar blight injury [(pythium aphanidermatum (Edson) Fitzp.] was observed approximately four to six weeks after planting despite using a preventative fungicide program. The controlled establishment treatment had 58% less Pythium injury than the accelerated treatment. The accelerated treatment did not enhance turfgrass cover or readiness for play, suggesting that elevated nutritional levels did not facilitate rapid establishment due to increased disease and probable environmental stress susceptibility." |
