| Abstract/Contents: | "With the increasing acceptance of sand topdressing on existing soil greens, and the construction of new sand greens, the potential of 'dry patch' occurring has also increased. Dry patch or as it is often termed a hydrophobic soil condition is an area where the grass exhibits drought stress conditions and where the soil does not become uniformly moistened after rain or irrigation." Topics include: Causes of dry patch, Detection of dry patch, Control of dry patch, The type of wetting agent to use, Excessive thatch, and Sand accumulation of bunker surrounds. |
