Penn A-1 creeping bentgrass displays a very dark green colour along with a fine leaf texture. It has outstanding heat and cold tolerances, very good winter colour and quick spring green up. Penn A-1 has good disease resistance and forms a dense sward. It is suited to golf course putting surfaces but can also be used on tees and fairways. 

• Very dark colour

• Good winter colour

• Outstanding heat and cold tolerance

• Superior wear tolerance

• Quick spring recovery and green-up

 

Application Rate

A sowing rate of 6 g/m2 (60 kg/ha) is recommended for a cultivated seedbed. For overseeding of existing turf 2.5 - 5 g/m2 (25 - 50 kg/ha) is recommended.

Fertiliser formulations and rates need to be calculated from soil analysis results taken from the site being sown. Fertiliser applications should be kept light and infrequent. This can be achieved either through a fertigation system or the use of soluble products. First mowing should take place when the surface has uniform coverage and the sward height is at no more than 12 mm. Solid/smooth rollers should be used to minimise surface damage in the establishment phase.

Penncross is an aggressive growing bentgrass with wide adaptability, but it is relatively coarse compared to more modern cultivars for closely mowed greens. It has tight, upright growth characteristics and a fine leaf texture. It is best suited for use on golf courses (fairways, tees and greens) and winter overseeding of bermudagrass greens.

• Strong seedling vigour

• Aggressive growth and good wear tolerance

• Medium dark blueish green colour

• Good dollar spot resistance

 

Application Rate

For new turf applications sow at 5 - 6 g/m2
(50 - 60 kg/ha) and for overseeding of existing turf between 2.5 - 5g/m2 (25 - 50 kg/ha).
 

Sow the seed to make good seed-to-soil contact and keep seedlings moist until well rooted.
Germination will take place in 7 - 15 days depending on
soil temperatures. Penncross performs best in soils with a
pH of 5.5 - 8. It has a moderate nitrogen requirement, with
0.45 kg of actual N/100m2
per year being adequate in most
situations. Optimum greens mowing height for Penncross
is 4.8 - 7.9 mm but can be adjusted higher or lower
depending upon maintenance practices and intended use.
Penncross performs best on sandy soils and tolerates clay
soils with adequate drainage. Bentgrasses do not perform
well in wet areas; however, Penncross can tolerate saturated
soil conditions for short periods of time.
