Abstract/Contents: | Presents a study to "evaluate grow-in procedure effects on putting green establishment and performance, and develop criteria and recommendations for new putting green readiness for play; determine grow-in procedure impacts on root zone physical and chemical properties" and to "evaluate post grow-in cultural practice effects on putting green long-term performance." Results indicate that "environment (location) did affect establishment ratings for a few observation dates; however, there was not a strong influence on the establishment of creeping bentgrass...two finer sand size distributions (not meeting USGA guidelines) had a better rate of establishment than coarser sands...a greater affect on the establishment of bentgrass was observed in the amendment study compared to sand size distribution...generally, increasing the rate of amendment with soil and peat enhanced establishment." |
