| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses maintenance work during the winter and how it "is limited by weather conditions, lack of growth, and reduced day length." States that "where play has been controlled to prevent use during frosty and wet weather" there will be "a full grass cover and an open freely draining surface." Notes that "light application of a good, natural compost, preferably prepared in compost heaps on the course, helps to produce a little slow growth by providing plant nutrient, helps to produce a more desirable green colour in the sward, and by forming a mulch helps to keep the surface warm and protect the foliage from intermittent cold spells." Describes how to manage early growth, moss, fairways, and tees. |
