With summer quickly approaching us nationwide, homeowners everywhere are beginning to work on their lawns, ensuring they are in pristine condition as they head into the outdoor season. While many focus solely on their lawn, you must consider your lawn additions, including outdoor putting green! With increased traffic due to pets, friends, families, and hot temperatures, you must take the necessary steps to ensure your green looks great year-round. To help you properly maintain your green, Northeast Synthetic Turf’s industry experts have compiled top summer putting green maintenance tips.
How Do I Cool Off My Putting Green In The Summer?
Try Misting The Green
Artificial grass and turf putting greens are extremely low maintenance and do not require any mowing, lawn care, or watering. However, if you live in a very hot climate and would still like to utilize your outdoor green even when the temperature is too hot, try misting the space with water. Doing so will keep the heat levels radiating off the turf to a minimum. However, it is important to note that you should only mist the green as overwatering can lead to adverse effects on the structure of the green, such as mold growth or turf degradation.
Add Shading & Covers
If you notice your putting green is getting far too hot to play on or maintain this summer, consider adding a shade component to your yard. Whether it is foliage, bushes, or plants, these items can block those harsh rays and keep the area cool, ensuring you can enjoy your green in comfort. If this is not feasible, consider getting a cover for your putting green. A cover can be placed over the surface, blocking the sun from hitting the ground and keeping your space cool and comfortable.
Invest In A Cooling System
If you want to take your putting green cooling to the next level, consider adding a cooling system to your lawn. There are many different artificial grass and turf cooling systems available that are proven and designed to keep lawns and greens cool even in the hottest of climates. However, this can be a large investment and must be well-thought out before installation.
