Abstract/Contents: | "Rate of coverage from plugs of `A-20' Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.) planted in Flanagan silt loam and treated with oxadiazon at 3.4 kg/ha increased as mowing height increased from 1.9 to 3.8 to 7.5 cm and with fertilization at 25 kg N/ha per growing month or higher. Sod strength measurements taken 2 years after planting were highest in plots receiving 25 kg N/ha per growing month compared to 0, 50, and 100 kg. Where plugs of 48 cultivars of Kentucky bluegrass received the same oxidation treatment, phytotoxicity ranged from no injury to complete necrosis." |
