| Abstract/Contents: | Presents a 2005 study at Iowa State University conducted to determine "the influence that cool-season grass species and seeding have on turf establishment along intensely trafficked sidewalk areas." Details the materials and methods used in the study, stating that the "experimental design was a randomized complete block with a factorial arrangement using 3 turfgrass species and 3 seeding rates, and 8 replications." Explains that "percent turf cover and percent weed cover was evaluated every two weeks." Reports that "perennial ryegrass had more turf cover than KB [Kentucky bluegrass] and TF [tall fescue]...Increasing seeding rate increased turf cover...Turf species had no influence on weed infestation." |
