Abstract/Contents:Presents a 3-part study, of which the first part was designed to determine optimum temperature requirements for Typhula incarnata sclerotial germination under field conditions. Results indicate that an oversummering period may be required for the sclerotia to germinate. The second part of the study was to determine if the increased spring greenup responses from late season and dormant fertilization schedules can be correlated with increased Typhula snow mold resistance. High and low rates of fertilizers (inoculated and non-inoculated) were applied at the traditional schedule, late season, and dormant. The results show that the Typhula snow mold disease pressure was high to moderate without differences between the inoculated/noninoculated nor between the nitrogen rates. There were differences between timing schedules and the traditional schedule showed greater disease pressure than the late or dormant schedules. The third part of the study was to determine if greenscovers, furnace fly ash applications and composts decrease Typhula snow mold damage and increase the efficacy of fungicides used to control Typhula snow mold in field experiments. Results showed that furnace fly ash could be used to hasten snow or ice melting at the end of the winter season. The results also indicate that greenscovers, composts and furnace fly ash combinations did improve turfgrass green-up and in all cases (except Greenscover + AllGrow) reduced snow mold severity and increased bentgrass recovery.
