| Abstract/Contents: | "Summary: The effects of mowing (height, frequency, and equipment adjustment) on turfgrasses are generally detrimental from a physiological point of view (reduced roots, rhizomes, carbohydrate storage and increased succulence). Aesthetic quality, however, improves because of increased shoot density. Mowing is necessary to maintain a groomed appearance. Use of the turf dictates mowing management. Successful turfgrass managers adequately compromise the physiological status of the plant with the demands of the clientele utilizing the turf." |
