Abstract/Contents: | Two seashore paspalum (Paspalum vaginatum) cultivars, 'Adelayd' (or 'Excalibre') and 'Futurf', were stolonized at the University of California Deciduous Fruit Station. The two cultivars had been established 3 years when the study was done to evaluate the effects of fertility of turf quality and dormancy. Eight different rates of N, P2O5 K2O were applied monthly February-November. The two cultivars broke dormancy in late February and plot response to the fertilizer was apparent in March. Neither of the two cultivars produced acceptable turf without fertilizer or with P or K alone. There was a significant difference in quality between plots receiving 1/2lb of N/1000 ft2/month compared to no N at all. All plots receiving 1/2 N/1000 ft2/month, whether or not P or K was added produced acceptable turf. Plots receiving N peaked in July-September, while plots with no N peaked in September-November. Applications of N to keep the grass nondormant does not justify the cost. The results also indicate that 'Adelayd' is superior at any level of fertilization. |
