Evaluation Of Colorants On ‘Sharpshooter’ And ‘Cody’ Buffalograss, R. Braun, J. Fry, M. Kennelly, D. Bremer, J. Griffin
Evaluation Of Colorants On ‘Sharpshooter’ And ‘Cody’ Buffalograss, R. Braun, J. Fry, M. Kennelly, D. Bremer, J. Griffin
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
Turf colorants effectively enhanced green color of dormant buffalograss. Using a higher application rate or adding a midwinter application helped longevity of color. Colorants increased canopy temperatures more consistently than soil temperatures, which may encourage earlier spring greenup.
Influence Of Fertilizer Source And Rate On Buffalograss Divot Recovery, E. Alderman, J. Hoyle, J. Fry, S. Keeley
Influence Of Fertilizer Source And Rate On Buffalograss Divot Recovery, E. Alderman, J. Hoyle, J. Fry, S. Keeley
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
Application of quick-release nitrogen fertilizer increased buffalograss divot recovery. A quick-release fertilizer at 1 lb N/1,000 ft2resulted in 50% divot recovery 6.3 days quicker compared to the untreated control.
Influence Of Simulated Golf Cart Traffic And Nitrogen Rate On Buffalograss Quality, E. Alderman, J. Hoyle, J. Fry, S. Keeley
Influence Of Simulated Golf Cart Traffic And Nitrogen Rate On Buffalograss Quality, E. Alderman, J. Hoyle, J. Fry, S. Keeley
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
Application of 2 and 3 lb N/1,000 ft2resulted in acceptable buffalograss quality when subjected to simulated golf cart traffic. Across all fertilizer treatments, traffic rates of 8 and 16 passes per week resulted in unacceptable quality ratings for the study duration.
