FAQs
Why is bentgrass good for golf greens?
Bentgrass is perfect for creating new golf greens due to how adaptable it is to very close mowing. It provides an excellent, consistent surface providing excellent playing conditions for golfers.
When is the best time to sow bentgrass seed for golf greens?
The best time to sow bentgrass seed for a golf green is during the warmer months, typically late spring or early autumn. Bentgrass establishes itself better in slighter, warmer, damp conditions.
How long do I have to wait before the first cut of the grass?
After sowing and establishing your golf green, allow the grass to grow to at least two inches before the first cut and only remove a third of the leaf length. To maintain the quality of the grass keep it well watered and gradually reduce the mowing height over the next few weeks.
Does bentgrass require lots of maintenance?
Yes, it is a very high maintenance grass. Typically it requires daily watering (depending on local weather conditions) due to its very shallow roots and may also require daily mowing.
