Soil temperatures have risen steadily across SC in the past couple of weeks. If you are in an area prone to mini-ring, know that the fungus causing the disease can be active now even if you aren't seeing symptoms. Good time to be on a preventive program.

@GCSAA @Clemson_Golf @tigersuper85 @CarolinasGCSA Congrats Don! Excellent recognition for your hard work in advocating for the industry.

Haven’t posted a #Nematuesday in sometime. Check out our newly updated mist chamber courtesy of the Buildings and Grounds group here at PDREC. We’ve already put this to some good use in testing research plots. Many samples ahead!

[Joseph Roberts @ClemsonTurfPath]

Dealt with spring dead spot or large patch in SC and looking for prevention this year? Be sure to watch soil 🌡️ in the week to come. Haven’t tripped the 72F mark yet but cooler weather has arrived and the forecast ahead details consistent low night-⏰ 🌡️.

Thank you to all of the golf course superintendents that strive to produce amazing facilities worldwide. Another big thank you to those that work with academia to enhance research and management by donating time, 💵, space at your facilities, and more.
👏👏

With the hurricane coming into the Southeast, it would be wise to get a QoI or DMI mixed with Serata or Segway down if you can. If you cannot get it down as soon as you can after the storm. Be safe out there

[Tom Bilbo @tbilb]

come join us in Charleston!

We crested 80 deg soil temps this week here in our region of SC. For all the Carolina’s managers, be sure to have the right prevention in place for mini-ring as we approach the summer holiday. Waitea is active at these temperatures even though symptoms may not show for months

[Dr. Bert McCarty @DrBertMcCarty1]

Upstate turf managers: I am on the hunt for a goosegrass trial location. Preferably within 50 miles of clemson. We need a 60ft x 100ft area that is thick with goosegrass (3 plants/sq ft). Please reach out with any suggestions!
