Abstract/Contents: | Highlights the usage of seashore paspalum Paspalum vaginatum in golf course greens. Provides practices used to obtain most efficient growth regulation, including the use of trinexapac-ethyl. Discusses how to handle pest management, disease control, nematodes, and insects that disturb the seashore paspalum, and cultural management practices, such as aeration, venting, topdressing, and vertical mowing, that are thought to help maintain it. States the effects mower height plays on the plant and how to improve putting quality. Concludes that "as more experience in managing paspalum putting greens is gained, programs will become even more finely tuned, and consistent quality playing conditions will be enjoyed by more and more players." |
