The advantages of artificial putting greens and artificial putting green lawns compared with real grass in terms of maintenance are: low maintenance costs, eliminating the need for professional maintenance technicians’ labor costs, fertilizer fees, and lawn mowing machinery and equipment costs. But does artificial putting green lawn require care? The answer is no. Artificial turf also requires care. If it is well cared for, the service life of the green can be as long as 10 years, or even more than 10 years. If it is not well cared for, the lifespan of the green is hard to say. It may be a few years. It can no longer be used. So where should we start with the care of artificial putting green lawns?
Basic daily management
1. Signs such as “No Smoking”, “No Motor Vehicles”, “No Eating Food” should be erected on the artificial green lawn, and they should also be strictly implemented in daily management to avoid burns caused by cigarette butts, injuries from motor vehicles and food residues. Ants come and harm the greens.
2. Keep the artificial greens clean and minimize cleaning of the greens. It is prohibited to clean the green lawns in high temperature environments to avoid straining the greens.
3. Place enough trash cans so that every member during the event can take care of the greens. Garbage can be thrown into the trash cans to reduce unnecessary damage to the greens and unnecessary cleaning.
4. Reduce the number of activities on the artificial green. Activities that do not need to be held on the green are strictly prohibited.
5. Pay attention to small problems. Some small green lawn problems, such as degumming and corner curling, must be repaired in time. For major problems, the green design and construction unit must be promptly requested for after-sales service.
Date cleaning and maintenance
1. Use a vacuum cleaner to remove leaves and debris, and keep combing the greens with a special lawn brush every two weeks.
2. Regularly use a sand rake to tidy up the quartz sand on the green to maintain the speed of putting the ball on the green.
3. In summer, you can sprinkle some water on the green to quickly cool down the green turf; dust on the green will generally be washed away when it rains, and it can also be washed away during the cooling process of the green.
Cleaning stains
No matter how you care for and maintain golf greens, there will always be some stains accidentally left on them. Cleaning these stains is a headache. So how can we clean the stains without damaging the green lawn?
1. For blood stains, milk, juice and other stains that can be dissolved in water, first clean them with washing powder, laundry detergent or detergent and water, and then rinse them with plenty of water several times. Be sure to wash away the stains and cleaning materials. !
2. For light oil stains such as shoe polish, sunscreen oil, ballpoint pen oil, etc., you can wipe it with a sponge dipped in perchlorethylene and dry it with a towel with strong adsorption force.
3. For heavy oils such as paraffin, asphalt and asphalt, wipe hard or wipe with a sponge dipped in perchlorethylene.
4. Nail polish can be wiped with acetone.
5. Paints, coatings, etc. can be decontaminated with turpentine or paint remover and water. Rinse the detergent with cold water and wipe vigorously, using a sponge dipped in perchlorethylene.
6. Chewing gum can be sprayed into small pieces with Freon and then the residue can be removed.
7. For fungi or mildew, 1% hydrogen peroxide can be poured into water, and soaked in water after wiping.
Properly maintaining artificial green lawns can extend the service life of golf greens, delay the aging of greens, save corporate costs, and allow greens to create greater value. This is the goal of golf green maintenance.
