Abstract/Contents:"Based on the optimum temperatures for turfgrass growth, generally considered to be in the range of 16 to 24ºC for cool-season grasses and 27 to 35ºC for warm-season grasses, it is possible to model the potential for the grass to grow at any temperature. This is the turfgrass growth potential (GP), a value ranging from 0, meaning no growth is possible, to 1, meaning the temperature is at an optimum for that grass to grow. The GP is useful in turfgrass management planning. This document describes how to calculate GP and introduces one practical application of this model: estimating turfgrass nitrogen requirements."
