Grooming

Now that the greens have healed for the most part from aeration the turf needs a good grooming to stand up the longer grass blades and cut them all to uniform height. This practice helps sunlight penetrate the canopy of the turf increasing density of the turf. The groomers are located in front of the cutting reel on the walking greens mower units. The following pictures show how this achieved.
