TURF DISEASES Microdochium patch (Fusarium) Microdochium nivale Symptoms start as a darkened water-soaked patch of about 5-10mm. The patches enlarge and may develop salmon-pink to orange-brown rings of conidia around the outside of the patches. It can then develop white, pink or grey mycelia that grow over the patch surface; this can often be seen early in the morning. All turf can suffer with Microdochium patch, however grass swards dominant in Poa annua, are the most susceptible. Red thread Laetisaria fuciformis Red thread develops on the plant surface and does not generally cause severe damage but aesthetically is undesirable, symptoms start as small mostly circular patches of dead leaves interspersed with live plants. The patches have a pink tinge. Closer inspection will reveal pale pink to red needle or horn-like outgrowths. In later stages the Read thread troughs out pink flocks of mycelium resembling candyfloss. Fairy rings (Type 1) Basidiomycetes Fairy rings are classified in 4 types: Type 1, Type 2, Type 3 and superficial fairy rings (or Thatch fungi). Within each of these four groups there may be many individual fungi that cause fairy ring development, but within each group the symptoms that these fungi cause will be very similar. Type 1 fairy rings typically have a ring of dead grass which is bordered on both sides by a band of stimulated grass growth. Fungal fruiting bodies may be found. Anthracnose Colletotrichum cereale Anthracnose is most common on Poa annua but has been noted on other grasses. The disease pathogen can cause two types of disease depending on weather conditions. Foliar blight is often mistaken for drought. The grass turns yellow with irregular patches. Basal rot begins as yellowing of older leaves on individual plants. The youngest leaf may become brick red in the later stages of development. The plant easily pulls from the turf and a black rot is visible at the base of the stem. Take all patch Gaeumannomyces graminis Take-all patch symptoms begin as a slight reddening or bronzing of bentgrass usually in a ring during summer months. As the bentgrass dies resistant grass species or broad-leaved weeds invade the centre of the patch. Patches can measure from a few centimetres in diameter to over a metre and become irregular in shape. Symptoms may fade in late autumn and winter. It is most common on fairly newly constructed USGA greens but can also occur following repeated heavy sand dressings. Fairy rings (Type 2) Basidiomycetes Type 2 fairy rings are typically a ring of stimulated grass growth with or without the fungal fruiting bodies. They do not cause any direct damage to the turf but aesthetically they can spoil the appearance of lawns and the lush growth can severely affect the playing surface of sports turf. Dollar spot Sclerotinia homoeocarpa Pale regular spots roughly the size of an American dollar. Spots are bleached white. The spots may coalesce to form large areas of affected turf. White mycelium may be present on affected areas on dewy mornings, which disappear as the leaves dry. Applying cold water to a hot green can cause the Dollar spot to spread vigorously. Water early mornings rather than in the evening to avoid this. Yellow tuft Sclerophthora macrospora Yellow tuft is a fungus that lives on the grass plant tissue but does not kill the plant. It is most commonly found on annual meadow grass and bent grasses. Yellow tuft produces small yellowing tufts of grass with thick bases and very little root; it can therefore be easily plucked out of the sward. Once it infects a grass plant it can remain dormant for a long time before sporulation and the effects show. Yellow tuft spreads in surface water and is often found in damp poorly-drained areas. Fairy rings (Type 3) and Thatch fungus Basidiomycetes Type 3 fairy rings generally show no change in the growth of the grass but are evident only by the presence of rings of fungal fruiting bodies. Superficial fairy rings or Thatch fungus are caused by fungal activity in the thatch. They can cause rings or patches of yellowed or darker green turf and may also be associated with slight depressions of the turf surface. Fruiting bodies will not be seen with superficial fairy rings. Perennial ryegrass Lolium perenne Seeds per gram: 700 Optimum pH range: 5.8 – 7.4 Salt tolerance: Medium Rhizomes/Stolons/Tufted: T Shade tolerance: Average Strong creeping red fescue Festuca rubra rubra Seeds per gram: 1,000 Optimum pH range: 5.5 – 6.8 Salt tolerance: Weak Rhizomes/Stolons/Tufted: R Shade Tolerance: Very Good Earthworm Lumbricus Earthworms eat decaying plant material and thatch and do not damage the turf. There are 25 species of common earthworm that are commonly found in the UK but only 3 produce casts. They are the Lob worm, Grey worm and the Blackhead worm. Browntop bent Agrostis capillaris Seeds per gram: 14,000 Optimum pH range: 5.6 – 7.0 Salt tolerance: Moderate Rhizomes/Stolons/Tufted: R Shade tolerance: Good Hard fescue Festuca trachyphylla Seeds per gram: 2,000 Optimum pH range: 4.5 – 7.5 Salt tolerance: Good Rhizomes/Stolons/Tufted: T Shade Tolerance: Very Good Leatherjacket Tipula paludosa There are several species of leatherjackets (larvae of crane flies) that feed on the roots and stem bases of lawn grasses and other plants. The adult crane flies, commonly known as daddy-longlegs mostly emerge and lay eggs in the turf or soil surface from August to October. Creeping bent Agrostis stolonifera Seeds per gram: 16,000 Optimum pH range: 5.6 – 7.0 Salt tolerance: Good Rhizomes/Stolons/Tufted: S Shade Tolerance: Good Tall fescue Festuca arundinacea Seeds per gram: 450 Optimum pH range: 5.5 – 7.0 Salt tolerance: Good Rhizomes/Stolons/Tufted: T Shade Tolerance: Very Good Chafer Grub Phyllopertha horticola There are 3 types of Chafer grub but the most common found in turf are the Garden Chafer. The different species have different lengths of life cycle (1, 2 or 3 years). Adult chafer beetles are small coppery green that scurry across the turf and feed on the grass leaf through spring but are generally not a problem. The adult beetles fly up from turf in large numbers at dusk from late May to June. Eggs are laid in the turf and these hatch a few weeks later. Chewings fescue Festuca rubra commutata Seeds per gram: 1,000 Optimum pH range: 5.5 – 6.8 Salt tolerance: Weak Rhizomes/Stolons/Tufted: T Shade Tolerance: Good Annual meadowgrass Poa annua Seeds per gram: 6,500 Optimum pH range: 5.5 – 7.5 Salt tolerance: Weak Rhizomes/Stolons/Tufted: T Shade Tolerance: Good Frit fly Oscinella frit The Frit fly is a shiny black insect that is around 2mm in length. It has 3 life cycles each year. The adult fly lays its eggs on the grass leaf, the eggs hatch into small maggots that then burrow into the roots and leaf shoots, causing withering and yellowing. Slender creeping red fescue Festuca rubra litoralis Seeds per gram: 1,000 Optimum pH range: 5.5 – 6.8 Salt tolerance: Good Rhizomes/Stolons/Tufted: R Shade Tolerance: Good Smooth-stalked meadowgrass Poa pratensis Seeds per gram: 3,300 Optimum pH range: 5.8 – 7.5 Salt tolerance: Weak Rhizomes/Stolons/Tufted: R Shade Tolerance: Poor St Mark’s Fly Biblio marci St. Mark’s Flies are so called because they emerge around St Mark’s Day (25th April) every year and can be seen in flight in May. They are most common on downland turf but can be found elsewhere. The St. Mark’s Fly has a short adult life cycle; they are in flight for only one week. The majority of their time is spent as larvae in the soil. During autumn and winter the larvae feed on decaying thatch and roots. In spring the males emerge a few days before the females, they mate and die shortly afterwards. Daisy Bellis Perennis A common perennial turf weed with white flowers with a yellow centre. Thrives on close mown turf and in alkaline conditions. Mainly flowers in late spring through to summer but can flower all year round. Buckshorn plantain Plantago coponopus Narrow lance-shaped leaves. It grows in sandy open soils, often found growing close to the sea as it is quite salt resistant. Chickweed Stellaria media A soft stemmed annual plant with small hairs along the stem. It has oval leaves that form opposite each other. It has very small white flowers that are followed by seed pods. Control before flowering to help prevent reoccurrence the following year. Buttercup Ranunculus repens A creeping perennial which sends out runners that then root and produce a new plant. Bright yellow flowers throughout the summer. Prefers damp conditions on heavy ground. Yarrow Achillea millefolium The fine feathery leaves and deep fleshy rhizomes of yarrow make it particularly drought resistant. It produces an abundance of small white flowers between May and July. Difficult to control with some selective herbicides. Pearlwort Sargina procumbens Pearlwort is a low growing mat forming plant with glossy leaves and small white flowers, April to September. It grows in moist environments. It has very thin waxy leaves and is difficult to control with many selective herbicides. Although a perennial it does yellow and suffer through the winter weather. Dandelion Taraxacum officinale A deep rooted perennial that forms a large rosette with large round yellow flowers. The seed heads produce an abundance of seed that is easily spread by the wind. Speedwell Veronica There are numerous species of Speedwell that are considered to be lawn weeds and they look very much alike. The most common ones found in sports turf and lawns is the Birds Eye Speedwell and Ivy leaf Speedwell. Mayweed Matricaria maritima A star shaped weed that adapts to grow just below mowing height. Prevalent on acidic heathland and moorland areas and sometimes found on parkland areas but not found on chalk downland. It produces a white flower with a yellow centre similar to a daisy. If allowed to flower each plant can produce large amounts of seeds. Ribwort plantain Plantago lanceolate A rosette forming perennial turf weed with distinctive ribbed leaves. It produces a long hairy flower spike with an abundance of seeds. Will grow almost anywhere but prefers soils above pH 5. White clover Trifolium repens White clover is a very common turf weed, it flowers with a small white flower from June to September and produces thousands of seeds that are dispersed and become viable within 2 weeks. As well as a large seed bank Clover also speeds by stolons. Clovers fix nitrogen from the air giving a darker green area to the turf. Ragwort Senecio jacobea Although a biennial, when mown close it produces a rosette that is persistent and exhibits perennial properties. As it gets older it becomes woody and can cause uneven playing surfaces. It is classified as an injurious weed under the weeds act 1959. Parsley piert Aphanes australis A low growing annual with pale dusky green, hairy leaves. It has deep cut wedge shaped leaves, three cleft with deep lobes. Likes dry conditions and sandy loams. Yellow suckling clover Lesser trefoil Yellow suckling Clover has a small rounded yellow flower right through summer from May to October. It spreads quickly and can form large clumps which look unsightly and can affect the playing surface on sports turf. Field woodrush Luzula campestris Course, broad grass like dark green leaves fringed with silky hairs. It favours very acidic conditions and spreads by creeping stolons. Flowers early in the spring and produces dark brown seed heads. Greater plantain Plantago major Large oval green leaves with between 5 and 9 large thick veins that are clear once the leaf is removed. The greater plantain is the most common and grows well in compacted low fertile areas. Selfheal Prunella vulgaris A member of the mint family, it has hairy leaves, grows quickly and spreads over lawns to form large patches competing with grass. It flowers with large rounded purple flower from June to November. It is easily spread by seed. Toadrush Jancus bufonius Toadrush is a very fine rush that forms a tight bundle of green, purple and reddish shoots. They have a hard woody base with very little root and can therefore quite easily be pulled out. It tends to grows in areas that persistently lay damp, such as turf with a compacted thatch layer.

Verti Cut • A non soil engaging operation to remove thatc h during the playing season. • Speeds up the surface. • Encourages vertical grass growth. • Reduces sponginess in a playing surface. • An excellent way to manage annual meadow g rass. Establish a suitable forward speed. Cover a distance of 100m and time it in secon ds. Divide 360 by the time taken to cover 100m in seconds = your speed in km/h. Example – time taken to travel 100m is 94 se conds. 360 ÷ 94 = 3.8 km/h. Choose the most suitable nozzle and use the correct nozzle chart as a guide to identify y our output at a suitable pressure for your sprayer. Too low a pressure gives poor spray coverage and too high a pressure increases the risk of s pray drift. Refer to the product label for most suitable spray patt ern. Check the nozzle output. Fill the tank with clean water, set the pressur e you intend to spray at and operate the spray er whilst stationary. Using a measuring jug, collect the output from one nozzle per boom at a time for 30 seconds . Add up the output from each nozzle and divide by the number of nozzles to give the average output per nozzle . Double the figure to give you the ltrs/min and cross reference t his with the nozzle chart. The output must be checked against manufacturers guidance with pressure at 3bar , and a +/- 10% variance is allowed. For produ ct efficacy, many chemical manufacturers recommend lower pe rcentages. Note: If one nozzle differs from any other it is fault y so change it and repeat the test. The nozzle is the last thing the product touches before being releas ed onto the site and this is critical to good ap plication and control. Calculate the application rate. Once you have the forward speed and the noz zle output you can calculate the volume of sp ray to be applied using the following formula. Nozzle output in ltrs/min x 600 ÷ forward spe ed in km/h ÷ nozzle spacing in metres = spray volume in ltrs/ha. Example – nozzle output 1.36 ltrs/min and n ozzle spacing of 0.5m and a forward speed o f 3.8 km/h is 1.36 x 600 = 816 ÷ 3.8 = 215 ÷ 0.5 = 430 ltrs/Ha. Output can be adjusted by: • Changing the forward speed if suitable to do s o. • Adjusting the spray pressure but ensuring still within suitable parameters. • Changing nozzle size. PPE Face Protection or Face Shield Type 5 & 6 Chemical Resistant Coveralls Chemical Resistant Rubber Boots Face fitting and appropriate Respirator Top 10 Spraying Tips 1 2 3 4 5 Check that the operator is trained and certifie d and that they have the appropriate PPE in good order. Check sprayer over prior to use and before ad ding any products. Perform a quick operating test with water and look for any lea ks or drop in pressure. Check the master on/off switch and check eac h of the boom switches are operational. Check all filters are in place, are clean and th e correct size. Check that you have the correct nozzles and t est the nozzle flow rate to ensure that they are not worn or damaged. 6 7 8 9 10 Check nozzles are orientated correctly, in line with the boom (with XC nozzles, the Syngenta logo should face forwards). Ensure s pray pattern is not obstructed. Ensure boom height is set correctly, a 110° no zzle with 50cm spacing the nozzle tip should be at 50cm above the target. Use a spray dye indicator or bout marker to e nsure accurate application without misses or overspray. Always clean the sprayer thoroughly after use . Use a good quality purpose made spray tank cleaner. If not being used for a while, store nozzles an d filters in a pot of a solution of tank cleaner.

Perennial ryegrass Smooth stalked meadow grass Slender creeping red fescue Chewings fescue Grasslands Turf Grasslands Rysport Turf Rysport is grown on the fertile soils of the Romney Marsh using seed selected from the Sports Turf Research Institute’s list of highly rated cultivars. Perennial ryegrass Fescue Chafer Grubs and Leatherjackets cause extensive damage by feeding on plant roots. Birds, badgers, foxes and other small mammals searching and pecking for the larvae can rip up already weakened turf. Moles and badgers are especially attracted to the protein-filled larvae. Nemasys G and Nemasys J provide the perfect biological control by entering the larvae which stops them feeding. This happens within three days of infection. The larvae die within 10 - 14 days. The nematodes complete their life cycle within the larvae, then enter the soil seeking out more hosts and so the pest control continues naturally.
