| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the potential benefit of aerating golf putting greens in the spring, explaining that "it is important to realize why aeration is an essential process and to understand the ramifications of eliminating any planned aeration." Indicates that aeration alleviates soil compaction, improves water movement in soil by creating channels, and removes excess organic matter and thatch buildup. Suggests that sand topdressings will fill aeration holes and help to restore surface playability quicker. |
