| Question: | "Our greens were sowed last year with German mixed bent seed. Naturally, a perfectly uniform stand of grass was not secured, and during the winter, for some reason, some of the grass has died, leaving patches. What are your recommendations as to the quickest means of filling these patches?" |

| Source of Question: | Wisconsin |

| Answer/Response: | "The quickest way to fill these patches would be by planting them with pieces of sod taken from near the edge of the green. The bare spaces then left near the edge of the green could be planted with bent stolons, or if stolons are not available they could be sowed with bent seed. To hasten the knitting of the turf where the pieces of sod have been inserted, use fertilizer freely." |
