Abstract/Contents:Discusses "a myriad of factors that individually are manageable but collectively are devastating" and lead to greens failure. States that "turfgrasses need light" and "air movement...is needed to disrupt extended periods of leaf wetness." Reports that "light deficit conditions favor annual bluegrass invasion." Recommends focusing "fertility programs on nitrogen to build a healthy root system." Concludes that "nitrogen applications when top growth has assuredly ceased is key to building healthy roots."
