USGA Summary Points:Wheatgrass turf receives higher turf quality ratings when grown in mixture with Kentucky bluegrass and/or hard fescue rather than in monoculture. Partial irrigation (50% ET0 replacement) results in greater turfgrass quality for wheatgrass monocultures and mixtures. The effect of mowing height on wheatgrass turf quality is inconsistent and smaller. Wheatgrass dark green color index correlates negatively with turfgrass ground cover, density, uniformity, and quality.
