Abstract/Contents:"Eleven grasses or grass seed mixtures were established in 1963-64. These are maintained under a 3/4 inch cutting height and annual fertilizer rates ranging from 1 to 3 lbs of nitrogen per 1000 sq. ft. Treatments are arranged to permit a direct comparison of effects between rate and time of application. Turf quality scores have been taken for five seasons. Clipping weights were taken during 1967-68. Kentucky bluegrasses, red fescues and mixtures of these respond well to fall fertilization. They maintain better color density during late fall and winter and green up about 3-4 weeks earlier in the spring than with similar rates applied during spring and summer. Clipping weights are lower during the spring and grasses maintain better density during the season. Bentgrasses respond less favorably to fall fertilization but treatments are not harmful."
