Abstract/Contents: | Sixth year of fine fescue cultivar trial established in fall of 1982 to identify regional adaptation of 32 fine fescue cultivars and blends in a full sun exposure. The trial is maintained at a 2 in mowing height with 3 to 4 lb nitrogen (N)/1000 sq. ft. through the growing season and is irrigated when needed to prevent drought. Preemergence herbicide is applied once in the spring and broadleaf herbicide is applied once in September to control weeds. A table is presented for May through October monthly 1988 turf quality ratings including means and least significant different values. In 1988, Banner/Checker, shadow, Atlanta, Koket and Scaldis/Atlanta were the highest ranked. This trial will be eliminated in 1989. A new shade study that includes many of the fine fescues was established in the fall of 1987. |
