| Abstract/Contents: | Presents a study "to gather data on the establishment speed of oversprigged couch vs. a conventional sprigging operation. A secondary aim was to evaluate two herbicides, simazine and Ronstar, for their performance during couch establishment." Results include that "the seeded couch sown into uncultivated ground did much better than that sown into cultivated ground. Clubs thinking of using a seeded couch in the roughs should get a better establishment result by overseeding with a sodseeder, rather than cultivating the soil first...There was no significant difference in establishment rate between Legend and Santa Ana...None of the oversprigged plots actually achieved 100% cover by the end of the trial...even though they had enough cover (over 80% groundcover) to open the fairways by around the 28th February...Simazine resulted in inadequate weed control and excessive phytotoxicity to the couch...No single plot of either Ronstar or Simazine resulted in higher couch groundcover figures." |
