A short grammar of greenkeeping : fundamental principles influencing turfgrass growth and maintenance / Micah Woods.
"A grammar? Of greenkeeping? These are the fundamental principles of greenkeeping, if one agrees that greenkeeping is all about the growth rate of the grass and modifying that rate to get the desired surface conditions. Here's what influences the growth rate, how turfgrass managers can think about t...

| 520 | |a "A grammar? Of greenkeeping? These are the fundamental principles of greenkeeping, if one agrees that greenkeeping is all about the growth rate of the grass and modifying that rate to get the desired surface conditions. Here's what influences the growth rate, how turfgrass managers can think about those factors, and how they can be adjusted to achieve the desired growth rate. This book explains how the influence of air temperature, photosynthetic light, plant water status, and leaf nitrogen content can be thought of and communicated as a grammar, the fundamental principles or rules of an art or a science. I've put this book together based on 14 articles I wrote on this topic for GCM China."--Page 4 of cover. | ||
