| Question: | "What is the difference between Penncross and Pennlu?" |
|---|
| Answer/Response: | "Pennlu is an improved creeping bentgrass selection developed and released by the Pennsylvania Agricultural Experiment Station. It is a vegetative bentgrass; increase must be made through the planting of stolons, runners, or sods of the parent material. Pennlu is reported to have performed consistently better than other bentgrass selections at the Pennsylvania Station in density, disease tolerance, vigor, texture, and ability to withstand a wide temperature range. Penncross is an improved creeping bentgrass selection that was developed by Prof. H. B. Musser of the Pennsylvania State University. Penncross turf is developed from seed. Penncross seed is grown by planting three separate select vegetative creeping bentgrass strains side by side and allowing them to go to seed. During this time cros-pollination takes place and the result is Penncross seed. Penncross seed production is the job of qualified seed producers who must conform with rigid state and federal regulations." |
