Abstract/Contents:Details the process of interseeding creeping bentgrass into Poa annua. States that there are "a thousand ways to unsuccessfully interseed a green." Presents plant growth regulators as an example of a tool that may not work. Explains that "a denser turf makes a more formidable competitor against emerging seedlings." Describes "four steps to success": making sure it is "the right time of year", using "the right seeding rate", "plant[ing] seed into soil", and using "a variety that outcompetes Poa." Concludes that new research is focused on "identifying which cultural technique (coring, etc.) offers the fastest conversion to bent."
