Abstract/Contents:Describes a study "to determine the effect that anti-desiccants applied before winter would have on the quality of turfgrass at springtime." Details how the eight different anti-desiccant (using GLAD, Transfilm, and Wilt-Pruf) treatents were applied to a mature stand of USGA putting green Penncross creeping bentgrass, while controls were an untreated plot and the use of an Evergreen Turf Cover. Describes results for visual evaluations of the test plots in spring. Results include that "the Evergreen cover provided better turf color than the non-treated control" and "the anti-desiccant materials used in this trial did not improve the spring performance of putting green turf following the winter."
