Golf Course Maintenance Equipment for Turf Preservation

Maintaining your golf course turf requires careful management of many variables, including soil pH and fertility. However, one of the most important considerations in turf management is water control. Too much moisture can let weeds run rampant and promote soft ground, while too little moisture can lead to dry, cracked turf that is nutrient deficient.

To ensure the long-term health of your golf course turf, aeration is an important step in water control. While aeration results in a temporary disruption of the green, it goes on to improve water penetration into the soil, reduces soil compaction, stimulates turfgrass root growth for a healthier plant, helps control thatch build-up, and improves overall growing conditions. Aeration is a vital yet easy step, requiring little golf course maintenance equipment.

With or without aeration, over watering must be carefully monitored. Too much water on the turf can lead to:

Soft, succulent growth, rather than the tougher, hardened turf needed for better wear tolerance.

Excessive weeds, insects and diseases.

Troublesome mowing, creating wheel marks and streaks, and grass clumps.

Reduced effectiveness of fertilizers and pesticides. Too much irrigation can rinse chemicals off, negating their effect while increasing pollution.

Thatch build up due to anaerobic soil conditions.

As you work to keep your turf looking and performing at its best, BBI maintains a selection of golf course maintenance equipment to make your job easier. Call today to find the equipment that’s right for your turf.
