Abstract/Contents:"This report contains the seventh year of data from this experiment. The experiment was designed to compare the response of 'Falcon', 'Houndog', 'Kentucky 31', 'Mustang', and 'Rebel' tall fescue at 0, 2, and 4 lb N/1000 ft2/yr and cutting heights of 2 and 3 in. One pound of N was applied once during May and September for the 2 lb treatment and during April, May, August, and September for the 4 lb treatment. In the strip-split plot arrangement, all six combinations of the two management factors are placed in a 2 ft by 3 ft block within each cultivar with the five cultivars replicated three times. There was little difference between the 3 in cut and the 2-in cut in overall turf quality for all cultivars (Table 6). Turf quality increased with each increment of N for all the cultivars at both mowing heights. The cultivars responded in a very similar way to the variations in mowing height and fertility in 1990. In general, each of the cultivars performed well through the season. None of the new varieties were observed to be superior to the older Kentucky-31."
