Abstract/Contents:"Methiozolin (PoaCure® ), has the ability to completely control annual bluegrass (AB) with safety to creeping bentgrass (CB) when applied at appropriate rates. Sometimes, however, methiozolin removes AB more quickly than desired, resulting in a voided turfgrass canopy. Studies are needed to evaluate methods to increase CB recovery rates when voids are left by dying AB. Studies were conducted to compare increased fertility via soluble fertilizer (SF), SF + trinexapac-ethyl (TE) and Floratine® biostimulants (FB). Two trials were initiated on March 22, 2013 and March 27, 2014. Trial 1 was conducted at the Virginia Tech Golf Course and repeated on two separate, push-up style, practice greens maintained at 0.39 cm. Trial 1 was a randomized complete block design with 3 replications for each study site. Each study site was treated with methiozolin at 3000 g ai ha-1 followed by 500 g ai ha-1 twice at a 2 week interval in order to facilitate rapid removal of AB. Trial 2 was conducted at the Turfgrass Research Center (TRC) on a USGA specification 'L-93' green that is maintained at 0.32 cm. This trial was aerated to remove 30% of the turfgrass canopy on May 5, 2013 and 2014. Trial 2 was a split-plot design with 4 cultural treatments as main plots and two rates of methiozolin as sub-plots. Sub-plots contained either no methiozolin or methiozolin applied at 500 g ai ha-1 6 times at a 2 week interval. All cultural treatments were the same between trials and were as follows: no cultural treatment, increased fertility using a commercially available SF product, SF plus TE at 0.048 g ai ha-1 and increased fertility via FB. All fertility treatments were applied every two weeks, when turfgrass was fully green, beginning on April 14, 2013 and May 2, 2014 in addition to the normal fertility regime administered by a golf course. Results: Trial 1: At trial initiation, turfgrass was dormant and CB cover ranged from 15 to 21%. One week after initiation of cultural treatments (WAIF) in 2013, FB plots were significantly greener than SF alone and the untreated, but not SF plus TE. In 2014 at 1 WAIF, no differences between treatments was [were] observed. By 6 weeks after initial treatment (WAIT) in 2013, all increased fertility treatments were significantly greener than the untreated, but not different from one another. At 6 WAIT in 2014, SF and FB were significantly greener than the untreated, which was greener than the SF plus TE. At the conclusion of the trial (12 WAIT), cover in treated plots ranged from 95 to 96%, and 90% in the untreated in 2013 and 90 to 93% in 2014. Trial 2: At trial initiation, turfgrass was dormant, and CB cover ranged from 11 to 21% across the trial area. One WAIF in 2013, percent green tissue on treated plots ranged from 72 to 78%, whereas the untreated was 54%. In 2014, cover at 1 week WAIF ranged from 62 to 70% across all treatments. At 2 weeks after aeration (WAA) in 2013 and 2014, FB recovered more than all other treatments. SF alone increased green cover more than the untreated but not equal to SF plus TE. At the conclusion of the study in both 2013 and 2014, there were no significant differences between cultural treatments. In 2014, however, at 6 WAA until the conclusion of the study, methiozolin treated plots had significantly less green cover than plots that did not receive methiozolin. These data suggest that methiozolin applications could influence turfgrass recovery following an intensive aeration event."
