| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses annual maintenance practices for bowling greens. Cites the maximizing of root depth, the ensurance of a well-aerated rootzone, the provision of adequate drainage away from the surface, and the encouragement of an adequately dense cover of finer grasses as factors that affect playing quality on a green. Mentions and defines mat layers, thatch, compact soil, and layered soil types. Describes renovation and aeration machinery and presents several problem scenarios and their potential solutions. Also discusses topdressing, Verti-Draining, overseeding during spring and autumn, and the incorporation of seed into green renovation. |
