Abstract/Contents:"At Auburn University, the general objective of three research projects has been to examine the combined and separate effects of fans and syringing on the health and performance of bentgrass putting greens in Alabama. Results indicate: The use of fans reduced soil temperature and increased root length density on a creeping bentgrass putting green. The timing of irrigation application (AM or PM) did not affect root length density. In 2007, the timing of irrigation application did not usually affect soil temperature, while in 2008 AM application of irrigation water reduced soil temperatures more compared to PM irrigation."
