Abstract/Contents:Discusses possible methods of controlling winter Poa annua. States that "Poa annua is enemy number one and it likes to do battle in bermudagrass tees, fairways, and rough." Mentions possible chemical controls and possible reasons for herbicide failure, stating that "it is unlikely that the herbicide did not work or it broke down too soon. It is far more likely that either the herbicide was not put down at the proper time or the turf manager expected control to last longer than is realistic." Concludes that "ultimately, the secret ingredient, desire must come from the golf course staff. With a great plan and the desire to have a clean golf course, Poa annua will not stand a chance."
