Abstract/Contents: | "Tifway bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers. × C. transvaalensis Burtt-Davy) is a warm-season turfgrass extensively used in many areas in the southern United States and requires greater quantities of nitrogen (N) than many other turfgrasses. However, N rate requirement of bermudagrass as influenced by establishment phase and fertilizer type has not been sufficiently investigated. The objective of this study was to determine the N rate required for renovated and established bermudagrass using either slow-release or soluble fertilizer and to determine the influence of season in Ft. Lauderdale, FL. Treatments were arranged in a split-split plot design with establishment phase as whole-plots, N source as sub-plots, and N rates as sub-sub plots. Nitrogen was applied in two-month cycles at rates of 0, 49, 147, 245, 343 kg ha-1 yr-1 using polymer-coated urea or granular urea. Turf quality (TQ) was recorded every week based on a scale of 1 to 9, and TQ ratings ≥ 6 were considered acceptable. Nitrogen required to maintain acceptable TQ was determined via regression analysis. Turfgrass grown on established soil required 72% less N than turfgrass grown on renovated soil. The current low IFAS recommendation (245 kg ha-1 yr-1) was greater than the N required by turfgrass on either soil, which indicates the UF/IFAS recommendation should be amended accordingly with consideration given to soil type and season." |
