| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the problems caused by moss and methods of controlling it. "This article probably reaffirmed what you already know; that moss is one heck of a weed to control in greens. To summarize, my suggestions for a moss eradication program are as follows: 1. Increase your nitrogen fertility to provide at least 1/2 lb of actual nitrogen per 1000 square feet per growing month. 2. Provide at least 0.8 lb Kā2O per growing month. 3. Apply iron sulfate at a rate of 8 ounces per 1000 square feet every two weeks. Higher rates may be used, but be careful of burning. 4. If weather conditions permit, verticut in two directions to open up the tufts. 5. Develop your own "Moss Patrol" to deal with moss as it comes into the greens." |
