USGA Summary Points:Relatively subtle modifications in rootzone composition can exhibit measureable differences in seasonal water contents. A 9-inch rootzone exhibits greater fluctuation in soil water content than a 12-inch rootzone. Cumulative turf ET over a 2-month period was largely unaffected by greens construction treatments and was about 60% the ETgage reference. Visual indications of drought avoidance and excessive soil wetness were related to construction treatments, but appeared unrelated to soil water status measurements.
