Effect of soil moisture on gray leaf spot and turf quality

Higher soil moisture (volumetric water content or VWC) led to higher kikuyugrass quality (as measured with Sepctrum CM 1000 chlorophyll meter) and lower incidence of gray leaf spot. Soil moisture readings taken at 2 foot intervals between 2 irrigation heads using the Spectrum Fieldscout TDR 300 moisture meter. Mesa Verde Country Club, Costa Mesa, CA, Eric Lover, Superintendent.
