The "Rough" in the spring

Every spring at each course that has cool season grass in the rough most superintendents get asked why is it so thick and tall. There is almost always a flush of growth this time of year during prime growing conditions for cool season grasses like we have in the rough. We are mowing it 2.5 to 3 times per week and are still having trouble keeping up with the growth. This will soon pass and we will see normal conditions when the ball is just off the fairway.
