News For Golf Courses and Sport Fields


Winter Injury
Harsh winter conditions like snow and ice often damage turf. Extreme temperatures like dry weather and freezing temperatures can cause a delay in the spring transition to green turf. Many golf course superintendants and sports turf managers use synthetic covers, anti-desiccant sprays, and heavy sand topdressing to offset winter injury and speed spring green-up.

The Solution
Using permanent turf paints such as the Grass Patch can decrease winter injury and promote rapid spring green-up in turf. Independent research shows that turf treated with permanent turf paints absorb more solar radiation in the winter and spring, allowing the moister to stay near the roots. This elevates soil and surface temperatures, creating a more desirable microclimate. The Grass Patch adds a healthy, natural look to warm and cool season turf all year long. http://www.naturalgreengrasspatch.com/
