Abstract/Contents:Two Idaho locations hosted a series of experiments and evaluations of Kentucky blue, perennial rye, bentgrass, tall fescue, and zoysia grasses. Conditions of cool nights high pH soil, and summer stress were exposed to these grasses plant in 5' x 20' plots mowed to 1'', 2'', and 3'' weekly, fertilized, and irrigated. Notes were taken on green up, texture, color and diseases. Conclusion from first location were bluegrasses are outstanding when managed properly, perennial ryes do as well in Idaho, they have sufficient winter hardiness, and fine leaf fescues are a bit more drought tolerant than Kentucky blue. Location 2 although all other mentioned conditions are similar, it was flood irrigated, concludes that Kentucky blue performs well, monoculture of bent-bluegrass is superior and perennial rye and fine leaf fescue didn't do as well. Also no diseases were recorded here.
