Sport Turf Agronomics. Bespoke formulated nutrients & Biostimulant Fertiliser for precision applications as required by the plant and the essential microbiome.
@jimRFU@Twickenhamstad What caused so much 'lack of traction' ? Players sliding about with seemingly little grip and the poor South African taken to hospital. Is it their boots, the climate or other reasons. Looking forward to hearing from you.
@liamjjjames What a pitch!
14th year of play with significant loss of upper rootzone and fibres. What a challenge to accommodate so many games and training sessions. Great work and continued results. Great passion gives great results.
@ct_turf My query was about the negatives on applying or over applying potassium, due to the reduced calcium uptake by the plant.
Interesting that you do not consider calcium a worth while nutrient. Would you like to expand your thoughts on this?
@Groundstaff1 @WiedenmannUK Question: is placing granules of nutrients (fertilisers) below the plant roots beneficial or could it increase leaching losses?
Curious...
@ct_turf @rmoyturf@keithconway75 I would be very interesting to see, if date is available over a time scale, the fate of plant calcium with these applications of potassium.
@TurfTruth I'm not sure if by methods do you mean substantiated research data. TurfTruth are simply exposing myths, meaningless statements, as above. By saying / printing 'maybe' is ambiguous especially as it could also imply 'maybe not' too. Their names are included on their videos
@TurfTruth@AllynHane Soil analysis provides great information, usually identifying what is not needed. When correlated with leaf tissue further substantiation becomes known. I cannot believe the amounts of potassium applied or product 'branded TURF HARDENER' - kidology at its best..
@Gerry_C1977 @SJRandom2 @anthonypainter An average coffee at any of the coffee shops costs approximately £0.03 per cup for the coffee. With price increases x 2 equates to £0.06 / cup. Mr Nero, the owner lives in the Waldorf Hotel, London with a discounted rate of £850/- per day or at least did do so before lockdown.
@soilfirst@TurfTruth@earthworksturf Revisiting basic chemistry is highly recommended to avoiding the spreading of fakeness, unless of course this is humour !!
@liamjjjames@tnsfc The high relative humidity is an absolute detriment to all grasses, but so much worst in a stadium environment with little air movement, which if I could move would still be saturated. Ever tried breathing under water? Well, neither will grass, hence disease. Magic wand required!
@TurfTruth@AllynPaul@YouTube It would be good to see numbers, the actual quantities of each element and the testing methods. It looks like a huge over application of phosphorus, but without numbers who know. Some well rotted BS would probably work wonders and there's an 'awesome' amount of that spurting out!
@agricontract Maybe it's etiolated growth syndrome. Very common in grass species since the 1950's the cause isn't fully understood and maybe associated with extremes of temperatures, the use of plant growth regulators (gibberellin inhibitors), nutriment deficiencies and others.
