| Question: | "How valuable is peat in preparing a sandy soil in the construction of putting greens? In what amount should it be used on a soil that is almost pure sand?" |
|---|
| Source of Question: | New Jersey |

| Answer/Response: | "Peat would be very desirable in supplying organic matter in preparing a top soil for your putting greens. For best results about 20 cubic yards of peat would be required for a green of 6,000 square feet. The peat should be disked in and thoroughly mixed with the top 4 inches of soil." |
