Time For Some Wear and Tear

 

The putting course was built for enjoyment and for an emergency turf nursery.  We spread the plugs from our greens when we built it and seeded a little bentgrass in as a nurse grass to help it along.  2 years later and the majority of the area is bentgrass with little poa.  This will not be a viable option at this time to sod a green or do a green expansion until we can get more poa into it.  Best way to do this is introduce wear and treat it like all our poa greens.  We will start rolling this or a portion of it when we roll greens, apply more sand and water and make more frequent growth regulator and fungicide sprays.  By allowing this to wilt and for pests to take over, probably removed most of the poa.
