What you should know about soil test P, spring growth, and #TurfSpeedo calculations

Description
I describe what  we can learn from looking at five years of Mehlich 3 soil test phosphorus results from golf course putting greens, how to calculate the turfgrass speedo in a standard way, rather than in a chaotic way, and recommend an episode of the Cornell Turfgrass Show that asks if soil testing is the answer to all your problems. These are the links to posts and videos mentioned in the show: https://www.asianturfgrass.com/post/mehlich-3-soil-test-p-in-sand-rootzones/https://www.asianturfgrass.com/post/spring-growth-flush/https://www.asianturfgrass.com/post/soil-testing-cornell-turfgrass-show/https://youtu.be/LHEs7vT2hfURead more about all kinds of turfgrass topics at https://www.asianturfgrass.com/Get ATC newsletters at https://www.asianturfgrass.com/newsletter/Turfgrass information and decision-making tools at https://www.paceturf.org/PACE Turf YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/user/paceturfATC's YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/asianturfgrasscenter
