Abstract/Contents:"Cascade Plus is a commonly used wetting agent for treating localized dry spot (LDS) on putting greens; however, the suggested application timing on its current label may not provide season-long LDS control in the transition zone. The objective of this research was to determine how various Cascade Plus application timings affected season-long LDS control and turf quality on a sand-based putting green. Three Cascade Plus application timings (7 days after initial treatment (DAIT); 60 DAIT; and 7, 60, 90, and 120 DAIT) and an untreated control were applied on an 'SR 1020' creeping bentgrass putting green from May through September of 2008. Visual quality and LDS incidence were evaluated bi weekly throughout the 2008 growing season. Cascade Plus applications at 60 DAIT significantly reduced LDS incidence and improved turf quality compared to applications at 7 DAIT and the untreated control. Late season applications did not result in excessive phytotoxicity when the treatments were applied during early morning hours and immediately irrigated following application."
