Abstract/Contents:Suggests that ultra fast greens do not always have to be associated with poor turfgrass quality. Provides several home remedies for better turf quality. Topics discussed include 1) soil structure problems that limit the movement of water into and through the soil profile, 2) bentgrass as a turfgrass that is not developed as an 'ultra-fast' green, 3) riding machinery on greens, 4) operations on moderate speed greens versus fast speed greens, 5) re-examination at the research level, 6) switching from 'weihle' or grooved rollers to solid rollers during stress periods, 7) double cutting the green, 8) use of lower nitrogen rates, and 9) maintaining green speeds during transition periods of the year.
