Lots of rain chances across the Southeast this week. The “environment” side of the disease triangle may not be the limiting factor for many turf diseases over the next several days.
Volunteer recruitment is open for the 2026 Korn Ferry Tour Championship at The Federal Club (Oct 5-11,2026) We need 20+ volunteers to help prepare and execute tournament week.

Abnormally cool and wet conditions in August have triggered early poa germination in upstate SC. This is in addition to a few plants that persisted through summer. Consider a POST with a PRE this fall where expectations are high. Happy to help build a program that works for you.
Between the rain, Dr. Kerns team at NC State were discussing a timely concern. Pythium root rot.
Best long term treatment: 3 way tank-mix of sunlight, air movement, and drainage.
When not available - programs with Fame + Serata rotated with Resilia did pretty dang well.

Got to visit @RyanSeveridtWCC and his top notch crew at Woodmont Country Club for the U.S. Adaptive Open this morning. Had breakfast with the crew after they put the finishing touches on the course and watched some phenomenal golf by truly inspiring humans. @USGA@EnvuGolfUS

Winter injury on warm-season turf (like this zoysiagrass) is widespread in the transition zone. Weather hasn't been ideal for recovery and affected courses are trying to decide between waiting for turf to heal or resodding damaged areas. Unfortunately, there's no easy answer.
Plant health is wealth for you and your golf course. Tune in next month as Jesse Benelli, Ph.D., Greens Solution Team, Envu; and Jim Kerns, Ph.D., Professor, NC State, host a live webinar on the effects and prevention of root diseases on putting greens – May 8 at 11:00am EST. https://t.co/Va0YuxSe0k
The difference between a fungicide program developed in 2003 on the left and a program developed in 2023. The programs were for bentgrass and these were applied to bermudagrass and bentgrass. Yes modern fungicides have improved!
March Madness isn't just for basketball; it's also prime time for preventive apps for diseases like fairy ring, Pythium root dysfunction, and sting nematodes. It's easier to score layups now to get ahead than waiting for the Hail Mary threes in a curative comeback scenario!
