Bentgrass Nursery Green

We recently reseeded our nursery green with 6 different varieties of bentgrass. We left a large portion of our current bent to be used if needed on the golf course. This new nursery will let us evaluate these new improved putting green grasses and determine how we may be able to implement them at VCC. These new bentgrass are bred with characteristics such as heat tolerance, disease resistance, wear and shade tolerance, higher quality ball roll and many many more traits. We have had good germination and should be mowing soon. The fence you see is to keep out the coyotes that damaged some places last week by digging.
