| Abstract/Contents: | Presents the results of a study which evalutes turf color and growth in reponse to the various colors of rain tarps. "Yellow, orange, red, and white tarps produced the best turf color with ratings ranging between 6.5 and 10...Tarp colors light blue, blue, and purple produced some yellowing that made them inferior to yellow, orange, red, and white. Tarp colors gray, light-green, dark-green, and black produce the most decrease in turf color and they were considered unacceptable...More investigation will be needed to evaluate duration of tarp cover, season of tarp cover, heat load under tarps, and potential for diseases, and light penetration." |
