Abstract/Contents: | "Overseeding cool-season turfgrass into dormant or semidormant warmseason turf is a practice implemented by turfgrass managers to improve aesthetics and provide an actively growing playing surface. This study was conducted to determine the effects of three pre-plant cultivation techniques and post-seeding traffic on the establishment of five overseeding turfgrass species. In September 2007, five overseeding species, including annual ryegrass, intermediate ryegrass, meadow fescue, perennial ryegrass, and tetraploid perennial ryegrass, were established into Riviera bermudagrass. Pre-plant cultivation techniques included core-aerification, vertical mowing, and an untreated control. Traffic was applied at either 1, 2, or 4 weeks after seeding to determine their effect on overseeding establishment. Plots aerified before seeding resulted in the greatest overseeding turf coverage in November 2007 and March 2008. Perennial and annual ryegrass overseeded plots had the highest turf coverage among overseeding species in November 2007; however, annual ryegrass had less coverage than perennial ryegrass in March 2008. Traffic was more damaging when applied 4 WAP (weeks after planting) than 1 or 2 WAP." |
