Abstract/Contents: | "Kentucky bluegrass plants grown in pots for 38 weeks under field conditions were subjected to soil temperatures of 14 ± 0.5 and 22 ± 2 C in a greenhouse environment. A soil temperature of 22 C significantly increased culm height, number of spikelets per head, percentage fertility of florets, and seed production. The 22 C soil temperature also resulted in a 5- to 8-day earlier maturity of panicles compared to the 14 C soil temperature. There was no significant difference in number of heads per plant between the two temperatures." |
