| Abstract/Contents: | Green construction is an important test for success to the course superintendent. When using the U.S.G.A. specifications you cannot deviate from them. The priority is to have your soil tested by a laboratory. This information takes time, therefore proper time management reflecting turf growth rate, season and weather conditions, and turf species characteristics is critical. The results of soil composition testing is important for topdressing and construction soils. Results should be available in about 30 days. Included is a list of specification information on old spec changes, infiltration, bulk densities, porosity, water retention, pH, organic matter, and particle size. Listed also are some concerns to consider such as: don't sod the green unless the sod has been grown on the same soil mixture, etc. |
