Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the beginning of the 2004 season in the North Central Region, stating that "the turf at many courses had ample time to harden off during November. Fortunetly, snow cover was often present before the arrival of frigid weather." Discusses the moderate to severe injury to Poa annua on greens and fairways seen in Minneapolis-St. Paul area and northern Michigan. Discusses turf coverings, stating that "in the absence of snow cover, greens covered with a material that provided a degree of insulation, such as excelsior mats, fared much better than greens covered by a popular, thin, waterproof cover." Discusses the effects that turf covers can have on types of winterkill. |
