| Abstract/Contents: | Presents "a quick review on ways to prevent winter damage and speed recovery of damaged turf when winter injury does occur." Explains that "winterkill is...one of the more difficult problems to manage because so much depends upon the weather and the amount of ice and snow experienced." Briefly overviews various types of ice which may settle on the turf and details the process of crown hydration, indicating that "this damage occurs during freeze and thaw cycles." Addresses the recovery process from winterkill, stating that it "can be agonisingly [agonizingly] slow and seed will not not germinate until the soil warms." Provides recommendations to prevent winterkill injury, including that "if...winter injury problems are worsened by shade, open up these areas to allow more sunlight." |
