Abstract/Contents: | "This experiment was conducted on a golf course fairway in Bedford County to assess the performance of seven formulations against a natural adult ABW population. The fairway consisted primarily of annual bluegrass (70%) and Kentucky bluegrass (30%). Applications were made when flowering dogwood was in full bloom and adults were recorded from golf course greens. Treatment plots were 5 x 6 ft, arranged in a RCB design and replicated three times. Granular formulations were applied with a hand held shaker with top dressing sand added to privide optimum product distribution. At the treatment time (10 May), the following soil and environmental conditions existed: air temp, 59°F; soil temp at 1 inch depth, 57°F; soil temp at 2 inch depth, 53°F; RH, 44%; amount of thatch, 0.0625-0.125 inch; soil textural class, silt loam; soil particle analysis: 19.5% sand, 57.8% silt, 22.7% clay; percent water content (percent by wt), 29.1%; percent organic mater, 7.2; soil pH, 6.1; water pH, 7; application time, mid-morning; and clear sunny skies. Each replicate was irrigated with 0.3 inch of water immediately after treatment. Post-treatment counts were made on 7 Jun. ABW control was evaluated by removing two 4-inch cup cutter sod samples from each replicate and recording the total no. of ABW life stages (larva, pupa) per sample. Totals were then converted to a ft² count. ABW adults were actively observed on golf course fairways, greens, and roughs before treatment. Six treatments provided significant control with formulations of DeltaGard, Scotts Insecticide III, and Talstar providing outstanding control. No phytotoxicity was noted. |
