Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the success the Richland Golf Club has had with bentgrass greens. Some of the factors they consider to be important are: construction of the green, mixture of topsoil for the green, and selection of the bentgrass. After the bentgrass has been established water management, fertilization programs, and choosing the right fungicide are all important. Danner concludes by saying, "...I would like to state that, now we know bentgrass is adaptable to southern climates, we southern greenkeepers owe it to ourselves and to our clubs to experiment with bentgrass in our own localities and to give a thorough trial to the bent grasses known for putting greens." |
