Abstract/Contents: | Describes how pink snow mold was found on Pukalani Country Club in Maui, Hawaii. States that "as its name indicates, pink snow mold can grow - and thrive - underneath a snow layer covering the turf..however, the disease...needs far less drastic conditions to establish and flourish." Details how it is possible for snow mold to occur in Hawaii, including Hawaii's wet weather and shade. States that "golf courses in cooler climates have a better chance at preventing the disease with treatments of [Pentachloronitrobenzene (PCNB)]-based fungicides." Also briefly mentions how Pukalani "was the victim of three teenage vandals who caused damage to the property that has been estimated at $1 million-$1.5 million." |
