Abstract/Contents:"Golf course superintendents at high altitudes in Colorado apply fungicides in October before permanent snow cover to prevent gray snow mold development caused by Typhula spp. They also remove snow from putting greens in March and keep greens snow-free through spring to help suppress snow mold. However, benefits of spring snow removal in snow mold suppression compared to potential turfgrass damage caused by exposure to low temperatures following removal have not been documented. We compared snow mold severity and turfgrass health in Kentucky bluegrass and annual bluegrass plots with permanent winter snow cover to plots were [where] snow was removed from late October through mid-November and to plots where snow was removed in mid-March and maintained snow-free through the spring. Snow mold severity and turfgrass health was evaluated by removing turf cores at monthly intervals and by monitoring turfgrass surface temperatures. Sparse mycelium of T. ishikariensis was first observed in non-fugicide treated plugs collected from all snow removal plots in early December. Extensive colonization and turfgrass damage (<12% survival) was noted by February. Conversly no snow mold development was observed in plots treated with PCNB through mid-March. Fall snow removal resulted in severe turfgrass damage in both fungicide and non-fungicide plots."
