| Abstract/Contents: | Describes the process of overseeding and possible positive and negative components of overseeding, including "a green field year-round" versus the "amount of effort and money through equipment, materials and manpower." Discusses using dye as an alternative, that "can be used for a number of situations," such as "fall football, spring baseball and special events like graduation, homecoming, etc... to touch up poorly overseeded areas...in coastal or extremely hot climates where bentgrass greens simply will not persist...[and] as an immediate fix or greenup in last-minute cases." Discusses application rates and frequency of dyes, advising that "the product should be applied in at least two different directions to coat both the sides of the leaf blade...[and] it may also be a good idea to put down a base coat (full rate) early and then another coat (also a full rate) just prior to your event." Concludes that "dyes can be an effective and useful tool...[when] used as an alternative to overseeding as well as a quick fix to cover up last-minute concerns...[and] to take a field that already looks great to the next level by adding that final touch." |
