Abstract/Contents:Three chemical growth retardants, MBR-6033, Maleic hydrazide (MH) and a combination of MH plus chlorflurenol (CF), successfully reduced growth of a highway turf mixture mowed at 2.5 inches and were especially effective at a 4-inch mowing height. Discoloration and thinning that resulted were overcome by a nitrogen increase from one pound to two pounds per 1000 square feet. MH plus CF and MH alone suppressed seedhead formation of Kentucky bluegrass, red fescue and Colonial bentgrass. MBR-6033, otherwise effective, did not control bentgrass seedheads.
