Abstract/Contents:"High temperature stress negatively impacts the health and performance of cool-season turfgrasses during summer months. Physiological effects of the seaweed extracts XP and Stress Rx, developed by Ocean Organics, were examined on creeping bentgrass (A. stolonifera L. cv. 'Penncross') putting greens exposed to prolonged heat stress. Creeping bentgrass field plots were maintained according to a putting green program typically employed on golf courses prior to initiation of the study. Products were applied individually or in combination as foliar spray treatments every 14 d through the duration of the summer in 2016 and 2017 and all plots were maintained under well-irrigated conditions. The physiological parameters of visual turf quality (TQ), normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), leaf area index (LAI), stress index (SI), canopy coverage, and greenness were measured. In both the 2016 and 2017 summer trials, plots treated with XP and Stress Rx applied individually or in combination had higher turf quality ratings, canopy coverage and greenness, NDVI, LAI, and lower SI when compared to untreated controls under prolonged heat stress. The superior quality of creeping bentgrass plots treated with these seaweed extracts suggests that applying XP and Stress Rx alone or in combination during prolonged heat stress may have mitigated heat-induced decline by offering the plants stress defense and recovery mechanisms."
