Abstract Greenhouse experiments were conducted in 2015 and 2017 to assess the feasibility of establishing three warm‐season grasses—buffalograss [Buchloe dactyloides (Natt.) Eng.] ‘SWI 2000’, inland saltgrass (Distichlis spicata L.), and bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon L.) ‘Princess77’—with tailored water (tertiary treated effluent with 15 mg L–1 of NO3–

Abstract Although treated effluent is being increasingly used to irrigate mature turfgrass, information on its use to establish grass is limited. Greenhouse experiments were conducted in 2015 and 2017 to examine establishment and nitrate leaching from three warm‐season grasses: buffalograss [Buchloe dactyloides (Natt.) Eng.] ‘SWI 2000’, inland ...
