Greens Matters By Glenn Ibbett – Green Keeper After a busy start to the Bowling Season. The top green has sustained some damage to the ends. While some I expect wear and tear, it was more than I expected. So over the course of the Christmas New Year period. I have reseeded these areas and germination has started. So we can hope to get back onto this green in a couple of weeks. As for the bottom green. It has fared much better with minimal damage. Over the upcoming weeks/months I will be applying fertilisers and wetting agents to our greens to aid with quick recovery and to deter heat stress on those hot days that will be coming.
