Abstract/Contents: | Briefly discusses the effect of mowing on turf, indicating that "few plants other than grasses can withstand the constant removal of their growing tips and the clipping off of their leaves." Addresses the development of tillers and provides information from an experiment, stating that "the side shoots formed far more rapidly on the cut than on the uncut plant." Provides additional information gathered from the experiment, explaining the effects of placing the plants close together. |
