Abstract

A study entitled Response of lawn grass cultivars to various nitrogen levels was conduct at Cantonment Board Nursery Nowshera Cant. Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Complete Block Design with two factors factorial arrangement and replicated three times. Three cultivars of lawn grass (Korean grass, Australian grass, and Fine Dhaka grass) were subjected to various levels (control, 50kg ha-1, 100kg ha-1, and 150kg ha-1) of nitrogen. Urea was used as a source of nitrogen. According to the result, the application of nitrogen to different grass cultivars significantly influenced all parameters except quantity of newly emerged leaves and days to new growth.
