Abstract/Contents: | Presents the 2000 results of the 1998 NTEP bentgrass cultivar evaluation "to determine adaptability of bentgrass cultivars to golf course fairways. Additionally, variuos other commonly recommended species were included for comparison." Results to date include "the creeping bentgrass cultivars as a group are outperforming the colonial bentgrasses as well as the other species in the study. Penn G-6, Century, and Backspin performed the best in 2000. At fairway height, Penncross is still performing adequately even though it is an old cultivar. The colonial bentgrasses performed poorly primarily because of their poor agressiveness against Poa annua, but they are more dollar spot resistant than creeping bentgrass cultivars. As expected, the Kentucky bluegrasses, perennial ryegrasses, and fine fescues are not performing well under the 7/16 inch mowing heights in this study. These grasses should be mowed at a minimum of 3/4 inch and preferably higher for the best chances of acceptable performance in a fairway setting. It is still too early to draw definite conclusions from this study and it will continue through the 2002 growing season." |
