  1. Creeping Bentgrass is adapted to cold and wet weather, as in the northeastern United States. Cool temperatures at night are particularly advantageous Bentgrass. In the south, at high temperatures during the day along with warm temperatures during the night to create extreme conditions for brown. During the summer months in the south, the depletion of carbohydrate reserves in Bentgrass turf and vulnerable to additional expense - the drought, traffic, shade, insects or diseases.

    Consequently, the only use of Bentgrass in the south for golf courses, where small, very intensive management permits. Bentgrass in the south is best adapted to the transition zone where cooler temperatures prevail. Sorry for the long answer, watering every day may help others to develop better. Good luck with the green.
