Question:"Is there a recommended overseeding rate for Poa trivialis in our part of the country? I have heard of rates from 8 to 15 lbs. per 1,000 ft2, but I have also heard that too heavy rates can cause severe spring transition problems for bermudagrass. (Louisiana)"
Answer/Response:"You are correct that too heavy an application can create spring transition problems. The preferred rate for most all courses in your area is 9 to 10 lbs. Poa trivialis per 1,000 ft2, depending on fall traffic. Many courses also find that collars transition better when the putting surface rate is reduced by 25% on the collars."
