🌱⛳ Why do greens look patchy in spring? That “multicolored” look is completely normal. Different grass types wake up at different times after winter, creating a natural mosaic across the putting surface. 📖 Learn more: usga.org/content/usga/home-p…

The Multicolored Mosaic of Early Spring Greens

Cool-season greens often have a mottled look in early spring. Although eye-catching, it’s usually just a seasonal sign of slight genetic differences among the plants.
