| USGA Summary Points: | "When fans were run for 24 hours, in some weeks fan + syringing significantly lowered soil temperatures, and in others the use of fans alone was just as effective as fan + syringing." "In the first study where fans were only run during the hottest part of the day, the combination of fan + syringing was always needed to provide maximum soil cooling." "When fans were not running, soil temperatures returned to equal those in the control plots within a 3 to 4-hour period. For example, in July, 2000, when fans were shut off at 5 pm, soil temperatures at 1/2 inch were equal to that in the control at 8 pm." "In both the 2000-2001 and 2002-2003, the use of fans often increased root-length density, while the use of syringing never did. In the 2002-2003 study in some cases syringing alone decreased root-length density." "An additional year of data collection, coupled with further analysis of the 2007 data, will help us determine if morning or afternoon irrigation best helps bentgrass." |
