Abstract/Contents: | "Increasingly, municipal water purveyors are imposing mandatory irrigation water restrictions to curtail urban water demand during drought periods. There is also need for lawn grasses that can withstand reduced mowing and nitrogen input regimens. This study is evaluating responses of four St. Augustinegrass (Stenotaphrum secundatum (Walt.) Kuntze) cultivars (ProVista, Raleigh, Palmetto, and Floratam) to two N rates (4.9 vs. 14.7 g N m-2 yr-1) and two mowing frequencies (every 7 vs. 14 days) under once per 14-day irrigation frequency. This study is being conducted over the 2021 and 2022 seasons at the Texas A&M Turfgrass Field Research Laboratory, College Station, TX. The study is arranged as a split-split plot design with three replicate plots per treatment. Turf canopy and soil characteristics are being evaluated weekly, including turf quality, percent green cover, NDVI, percent wilt and leaf firing, soil VWC, reflective canopy temperatures, as well as tissue N and dark green color retention following fertilization. Data are demonstrating cultivars differer in their tolerance to reduced mowing frequency and reduced N inputs." |
