Syringing (Turf Cooling Technique)

Syringing (turf cooling technique) is the practice of lightly misting the turfgrass with water during hot or dry conditions to cool the leaf surface and reduce heat stress. Unlike deep watering, syringing applies a minimal amount of water that quickly evaporates, lowering the temperature and preventing turf damage. Syringing is commonly used on golf greens and sports fields to protect turf during extreme heat.
