Listen now
Description
Maggie Reiter joined me to discuss how the start (and end) of the turfgrass maintenance season might be predicted. When is spring green-up? When does the season end?  We discussed, and showed charts of growth potential and temperature, from this post: https://www.asianturfgrass.com/post/maps-of-average-temperatures-in-the-usa/The Sunday Lawn Care plansWe discussed the article "An examination of turfgrass species use on golf course putting greens" by Brosnan et al., which you can read, and see the maps of species use, at: https://doi.org/10.1002/cft2.20160The 15th International Turfgrass Research Conference will be held in July 2025 at Karuizawa, Japan: https://itrc2025.turfsociety.com/See our previous conversation about ecoregions at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TP3XmNyDN6sBlack sand topdressing in Iceland to increase temperature: https://www.asianturfgrass.com/post/turfgrass-mystery-the-case-of-the-greener-grass/ Read 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
