Silvery Thread Moss (Bryum argenteum) has become a serious problem on many golf course putting greens. Join Fred Yelverton, Ph.D., for this 90-minute webinar to learn management practices that can reduce the invasion of this weed. Is it coincidence that the spread of moss across the world has coincided very closely with a decrease in mowing heights on putting greens? Why is moss infecting not only bentgrass but also bermuda and poa annua greens? Get answers to these questions and some practical tips you can use on this ancient, simple organism.
