Abstract/Contents: | Discusses "'smart scalping' that reduces pollution while promoting better germination of ryegrass seed." States that the technique "involves watering the dormant Bermuda before and after cutting and raising the scraping height." Explains that "studies of the 'smart scalping' method show that it produces up to 90 percent less air pollution than traditional overseeding procedures." Concludes that there is "a different mindset with superintendents who are looking at ["smart scalping"] as an effective alternative to the old, destructive practices." |
