Question: | "Are creeping bent stolons in a nursery two years old as suitable for planting purposes as stolons in a nursery one year old? Last spring we put in a rather large creepng bent nursery but were unable to make use of the stolons from the nursery in the fall. Would the stolons from this nursery be all right to use next fall?" |
Source of Question: | Minnesota |
Answer/Response: | "In a creeping bent nursery over a year old the growth in the middle of the rows will be found to consist mostly of upright shoots, and not entirely of the creeping stems. It is these creeping stems of creeping bent which are needed for best results in vegetative planting of putting greens. It is for this reason that we advise against the use of stolons from a nursery over one year old if a club can arrange to plant its nursery anew each year. It will however be found that the margins of the nursery rows, unlike the middle of the rows, will consist almost entirely of creeping stolons. You should therefore be able to obtain good planting stock by making use of only the margins of the rows, discarding the middle portion." |
