| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses perennial ryegrass and Kentucky bluegrass mixtures, suggesting that "a common goal is to achieve a turf stand that is about 50% each Kentucky bluegrass and perennial ryegrass. Recommendations for the proper amount of perennial ryegrass to use in mixtures with Kentucky bluegrass varies but is generally less than 50% by seed weight." Presents a study conducted to "determine the best time for various seed mixtures to be seeded before football game season that begins in mid to late August." Reports that "turf quality varied depending on the year and month. In general, turf seeded to 100% perennial ryegrass tended to provide the best quality during May and June, but in one of the 2 years crown rust disease severely reduced turf quality during August and September compared to the mixtures with Kentucky bluegrass." |
