Abstract/Contents:Details research that has been conducted on "the use of inorganic amendments in putting green construction," reporting that "a great deal of research has been expended in this area, with mixed results as to the effectiveness of inorganic amendments." Highlights an experiment conducted "to examine the impact of common inorganic amendments on bermudagrass putting green performance when the amendments were used as a part of a drill-and-fill greens renovation project." Reports that "in this study, incorporation of amendments in aerification holes showed no benefits, and reconstruction of the green (with proper drainage) would have been a better option."
