Today our head greenkeeper informed me that our greens are made up from approximately 70% Poa annua and 30% Agrostis palustris.
This is very interesting to me as I know Poa annua as a weed.
The head mentioned that this is common practice in the UK as the Poa annua is such a strong grower that there is no point in trying to get rid of it. He also mentioned that the consistent verti-cutting controls the seeds that usually accompany Poa annua.
