USGA Summary Points: | Leaving verdure on increases surface organic matter levels. However, this difference is obscured if samples are ground and sieved as is common at most soil testing labs. If the verdure is of interest, it is critical that the samples be ignited intact and not ground or sieved. Approximately 5 to 10 individual cores from a putting green are necessary to minimize the standard deviation. Putting greens with typical levels of surface organic matter (~5%) required approximately 5 cores, while putting greens with higher levels (>10%) required about 10 cores A core diameter of 0.75 inches was sufficient for surface organic matter characterization and a larger 1.5 inch diameter core did not reduce the number of samples required to minimize the standard deviation but increased surface disturbance The spatial patterns of the data suggest that individual samples should be taken approximately 30 feet apart |
