| Abstract/Contents: | "This trial was conducted at Wentworth-By-The-Sea Country Club, New Castle, NH. All treatments were applied to a fairway on 15 Jul on 7 X 7 ft plots, 5 replicated per treatment, using an RCB design with 1-ft buffers between plots. Treatments were applied with a 2-wheel bicycle-type CO² boom sprayer equipped with 4 spray heads, fitted with a 50-mesh strainer and an 8004 fan-type nozzle. The volume of water and insecticide mix per plot was 2 gal/1000ft² delivered at 40 psi. The entire trial was irrigated with 1/2 inch of water immediately after application. Weather conditions at time of application were as follows: air temp, 72°F; sky, cloudy; wind, strong breeze. Soil conditions were as follows: surface temp, 70°F; at 1-inch depth, 71°F; at 2-inch depth, 71°F; texture, sandy loam; sand 67%; silt, 27%; clay, 6%, soil pH, 6.0; dry matter, 74%; moisture, 26%; organic matter, 12%; thatch depth, 1/4 inch. The trial was rated on 5 Aug. A Ryan 12" sod cutter was used to cut a strip to a depth of 3/4 inch. A 1 ft² piece of sod as pealed back, and live grubs were counted. Cruiser gave excellent control at the high rate. Vector was ineffective. Oftanol gave fair control. No phytotoxicity was observed." |
