Turfgrass Book Review,

This review is from: Turfgrasses: Their Management and Use in the Southern Zone (Hardcover)
Dr. Duble is an outstanding agronomist and writer. Even though this book is actually a textbook used by Dr. Duble and others to teach college level turfgrass management, it is extremely useful as a reference manual for all kinds of turfgrass issues here in Texas. Great reference book!

By Russell E Smith (College Station, TX United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Turfgrasses: Their Management and Use in the Southern Zone (Hardcover)
The book is good for all people...topics covered apply not only to athletic fields(and golf courses), but also to the average home user. After reading the maintenance section, most people will learn that they over-fertilize and over-water. Topics also include tufrgass diseases, weed control, and managing insect problems.
