USGA Summary Points: | Studies are underway at New Mexico State University to compare sprinkler versus subsurface drip versus subground irrigation for putting greens. Studies are also comparing type of rootzone mix (straight sand versus sand mixed with peat versus sand mixed with urea-formaldehyde polymer) on irrigation efficiency. At the beginning of the establishment period, peat-amended plots grew in the quickest. At the end of the three-month establishment period, urea-formaldehyde polymer amended plots reached coverage equal to that of peat-amended plots. All plots, including sub-irrigated ones, needed additional light watering from sprinklers during the day in addition to scheduled irrigation to prevent drought stress. Despite having received the least total amount of irrigation water, coverage on subgroud irrigated plots was either highest or second highest. |
