Abstract

Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.; KBG) is the most widely used turfgrass species in Minnesota lawns, requiring routine cultural management inputs such as mowing and irrigation to maintain acceptable turfgrass quality. Previous research has suggested raising mowing heights and using improved irrigation technology to reduce inputs without sacrificing lawn quality. Limited information exists regarding the combined aesthetic impacts of mowing height + smart irrigation on lawn mowing requirements and their affects also their potential combined environmental impacts using improved irrigation and mowing practices.
