Abstract/Contents: | Presents a study conducted to "determine the topdressing requirements of three widely planted bentgrasses maintained under two nitrogen levels." Explains that "sand topdressing is applied to putting greens for thatch management and to provide a smooth and firm surface." Describes the procedures used, stating that "three bentgrass...cultivars; 'Penncross, 'L-93', and 'A-4' were seeded to a sand based research green...Plots were rated visually for overall turfgrass quality on a 0 to 10 scale where 0 equals brown or dead turf and 10 equals optimum greenness, density and uniformity." Reports that "tiller density results were as expected, 'A-4' had the highest number of tillers and 'Penncross had the lowest number of tillers." |
