Question: | "Can you advise what the cause may be and what remedy is suggested for the occurrence of moss or a green scum on fairway soil?" |
Source of Question: | New York |
Answer/Response: | "Two common causes for this condition are, insufficient drainage and poverty of soil. At times also when manure is used to excess, a green scum will appear. We would suggest that you improve the drainage in case you find it defective, or else fertilize these spots with a chemical fertilizer, such as nitrate of soda or ammonium sulfate." |
