Edges of greens.

As you can see from this pic it is impossible to distinguish the difference between the green and the collar at this time. We are mowing the old collar and the cleanup laps on the greens at a much higher height and less frequent than normal. This gives the edges of the greens a chance to recover and doesn't wear out the new seed that is starting to germinate. We will be transitioning this cut back to normal in the next few weeks, once these weak areas start to fill in. When we do transition this cut back, there will be no bentgrass collar. We will be mowing the green right up to the Bermuda apron. The Bermuda surround will now be the collar.
