| Abstract/Contents: | States that "winterkill of turfgrass on golf courses is a common problem in Michigan." Notes that "winterkill injury resulted in direct and indirect costs for golf courses as putting greens had to be reestablished with seed or sod and courses that were several affected had decreased numbers of rounds played." Presents a study conducted to "determine the effect of autumn nitrogen, plant growth regulators, topdressing with sand, topdressing with dark colored materials, and snow on winterkill of Poa annua and creeping bentgrass putting greens." Details the methods and materials, stating that "crown hydration was encouraged throughout the winter months by flooding the trial area with water when air temperatures increased to 45° F. Reports that "initial results...indicate no significant winterkill of the plot areas but there were differences in spring green-up among the treatments." Concludes that "research will continue in the winter of 2011-2012." |
