Zoysia seedheads and pitchmarks that last
I discuss two blog posts---one is pitch marks and what I know about reducing damage from them. The other is zoysia seedheads, specifically on manilagrass, and the interesting phenomenon of year round seed production in short days and high temperatures near the equator.
This episode discusses two posts.
One is about Zoysia seedheads and the interesting and troublesome phenomenon of seedhead production for more than half the year: https://www.asianturfgrass.com/post/a-hypothesis-about-fecundity-of-zoysia/
The second post is about pitch marks on greens and about the one sure way I know of to reduce their size and severity---firmer green surfaces: https://www.asianturfgrass.com/post/pitch-marks-that-last-for-days/
