T he study was conducted by Dr. Beth Guertal at Auburn University on a recently established stand of ‘Rebel type’ tall fescue maintained at lawn height. Study design was a randomized complete block with four replications. Treatments consisted of a nontreated and Amino Iron applied a 1, 1.5, or 2 lb per acre on 11 January, 8 February, and 11 March. All treatments included Harrell’s SprayMAX® Nonionic Penetrant Plus as an adjuvant. Treatments were applied using a backpack CO 2 sprayer. Relative turfgrass color was assessed at 24 hours, 3 (or 5), 7, 14, 21, and 28 days after each application using a 1-9 scale where 1 represented dead or completely brown turf and 9 represented dark green, lush, and highly uniform turf. Amino Iron applied at 2 lb per acre enhanced tall fescue color relative to the nontreated on 11 out of 13 rating dates following the second application.
