Abstract/Contents:"Fraise mowing is an effective cultural practice for bermudagrass thatch management. However, prolonged bermudagrass recovery times ensue, and any practices to hasten bermudagrass recovery should be explored. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of sand topdressing depth and timing on bermudagrass recovery after fraise mowing. Two trials were conducted in Raleigh, NC during the summers of 2017 and 2018 on established 'Celebration' common and 'Tifway' hybrid bermudagrasses. All plots were fraise mowed in mid-June and subsequently received one independent topdressing application at 0, 7, or 14 days after fraise mowing to a depth of 0 (control), 0.3 cm (light), 0.6 cm (medium), or 1.3 cm (heavy) (0, 0.125, 0.25, or 0.5 in, respectively). In 2017 acceptable TQ (>6) and cover were achieved in both cultivars with control, light, and medium topdressing rates at 27 days after fraise mowing (DAF), regardless of application date. Heavy topdressing rates delayed bermudagrass recovery by ā‰„ 7 days, regardless of application date in 2017. However in 2018 all depths applied immediately after fraise mowing on Tifway had acceptable TQ by 22 DAF. Control and shallow depths on Tifway had acceptable TQ by 22 DAF regardless of application date. Both years, turf quality of heavy topdressing rates applied 7 or 14 DAF remained unacceptable throughout the studies. Both years light sand topdressing rates did not delay bermudagrass recovery. However, all sand topdressing depths did not accelerate bermudagrass recovery following fraise mowing."
