USGA Summary Points: | Studies are underway at New Mexico State University to compare sprinkler versus subsurface drip versus subground irrigation for putting greens. Subirrigated creeping bentgrass was of significantly higher quality and had significantly fewer localized dry spots than either subsurface drip irrigated plots, or sprinkler irrigated USGA or California plots. Greens built according to California specifications with straight sand had the highest occurrence of localized dry spots. Irrigation water consumption was highest on sprinkler irrigated California and USGA greens. A total of 345 mm (13.6 inches) of irrigation was needed between May and August to maintain creeping bentgrass on sprinkler irrigated California and USGA greens adequately. Plots irrigated with Evaporative Control System (ECS) subirrigation system and Toro Geoflow subsurface drip irrigation system were watered with 345 mm (13.6″) and 470 mm (18.5″), respectively. |
