Abstract/Contents:Presents a study conducted "to examine the effect of different light levels in combination with exogenous fructose applications on two different fine leaf fescue cultivars: chewings fescue (Festuca rubra v. commutata) 'SR5100' and creeping red fescue (Festuca rubra v. rubra) 'Dawson.'" Details the methods and materials used in the study, stating that "the experiment was a randomized complete block design with two factors: light and fructose or no fructose as the control." Reports that "preliminary results of the first study showed that in each light treatment there was no significant difference between fructose applications and the control for turf quality and color. However, there was a significant impact on clipping weights and density due to fructose applications as compared to the controls for each lighting treatment."
