TRAFIC
- COMPACTION - WEAR
|
High
traffic areas that cause
compaction or excessive
wear on SeaIsle
1 turf will require
regular maintenance. This
maintenance is especially
critical in salt-affected
environments. Long term
turf performance can be
enhanced with scheduled
aeration events at least
12 inches (300 mm) deep
twice each year and shallow
applications (4 - 6 inches
or 100 - 150 mm) monthly
during peak use.
Management options on golf
courses include:
1) Restricting
cart traffic solely to cart
paths
2) Roping off
highly traveled areas
3) Application
of crumb rubber (best used
as a topdressing application)
4) Overseeding
during the winter months
5) Aeration
- verticutting - use of
highly soluble nitrate sources
6) Good drainage
