Reel Mower Terminology
Clip Marks —
A description of the aftercut appearance of the turf where clip pattern is very visible.
Sometimes referred to as corrugation, washboarding or wave cut.
Clumping —
The discharge of clippings into unsightly lumps or rows. Excessive clippings besides
being unsightly may smother the grass or act as incubators for disease.
Combs or Brushes —
Attachments generally installed on the cutting unit to lift the grass blades resulting in a
cleaner cut. They also promote a more vertical growth and prevent or correct grain in the
grass.
Compaction —
Soil particles pressed closely together. Soil compaction prevents adequate water and air
penetration and reduces turfgrass root growth.
Cool-season Turfgrasses —
Cool-season grasses grow best within a temperature range of 60 to 75 F. Their
environmental adaptation is limited primarily by the intensity and duration of seasonal
heat and drought stresses. Cool-season grasses are generally adapted to temperate and
subarctic climates. Examples: Annual bluegrass ( POA ANNUA ), bentgrass, Kentucky
bluegrass, fine-leafed fescues.
Corrugation —
See Clip Mark.
