| Abstract/Contents: | "When establishing golf or sports turf from sod, the soil brought in with sod often does not match the existing root zone material, which can create a problematic layer in the soil profile. The objective of this study was to determine the effects of establishment method and rootzone soil type on rooting and turf quality of a sports field. Soil-based sod, washed sod, and preharvest aerified sod were established on sand-capped and native soil areas. Results thus far have indicated differences in soil types with regard to root length and rooting strength. Pre-harvest aerified sod had greater rooting strength and deeper roots in the native soil root zone, while washed sod had greater rooting strength and deeper roots in the sand-capped root zone. The results demonstrated that alternative establishment methods can enhance rooting while having minimal effects on visual turf quality." |
