Rob Golembiewski, Ph.D.
Overwhelmingly, green speed research to date has focused primarily on creeping bentgrass.
A variety of cultural and chemical practices have been implemented by superintendents
in a quest for the "perfect" firm, fast putting greens. Some of these practices
include lowering mowing heights or increasing mowing frequency, reducing irrigation
and fertilizer amounts to limit plant vigor, applying plant growth regulators to
limit vertical growth, or employing the use of other devices like rollers. One,
some, or all of these practices may be implemented at any one time to optimize putting
green speed. This 90-minute webcast focuses on the effects of various mowing and
rolling regimes, application strategies of Primo Maxx, and the impact of gas vs.
electric rollers on Poa annua green speeds.
