| Abstract/Contents: | Stenotaphrm secondatum is described and maintenance factors are discussed regarding irrigation, mowing, fertilization, and pest & disease control. Overwatering increases weed growth and light frequent amounts encourage shallow root growth - both unwanted. Infrequent heavy watering is preferred. A sharp reel mower is best used, frequently at 1 1/2'' in height. Fertilization ratios of 10-5-5 with an organic base is good at a rate of 1 lb per 1000 sq. ft. for 3 months, and should be the limit. The two insects common as pests are lyqaeidae and melolonthinae, both controlled by diazinon. Brown patch is the most common disease with Tersan, Captain, and Terraclor are the most effective cures. |
