| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses a study conducted "to study the potential of overseeding fine-leaved fescues into established buffalograss turf and to improve turfgrass color and quality." States that "the first studies investigated species, seeding rate and date, and core cultivation effects on overseeding establishment and buffalograss performance with turfs maintained as golf course roughs. [Later] studies investigated overseeding effects when turfs were maintained under fairway conditions." Lists SR 3100 hard fescue, SR 3200 blue fescue, and SR 5100 chewings fescue as the fine-leaved fescues used in the study and states that "fall, spring, and fall-spring seedings were compared in the seeding date study." Details methods and materials utilized in the study, stating that "the fine-leaved fescues were overseeded into mature stands of buffalograss." Mentions studies conducted on fairway overseeding, stating that "buffalograss cultivars maintained as fairway turfs were overseeded with Bighorn blue fesuce at 1.0 and 2.0 lbs./1,000 sq. [square] ft. [feet] in early September." Presents the results of the seeding rate and date studies and reports that "in the seeding date studies, fall overseeding gave the best turfgrass quality and color, and highest shoot density ratings compared to spring or fall-spring plantings." Also presents the results of the fairway overseeding study and reports that ""overseeding buffalograss cultivars maintained under fairway mowing heights with Bighorn blue fescue resulted in improved turfgrass quality when compared to non-overseeded grasses." |
