Why is summer so hard on cool-season grasses
Kansas sits in the transition zone where cool-season grasses like fescue and bluegrass struggle in hot dry summers while warm-season grasses thrive farther south. Photosynthesis drops as temperatures rise, while respiration continues, starving the plants of energy and forcing dormancy or death. Fescue fares better under heat and drought, recovers faster, and bluegrass often thickens slowly via rhizomes.
