Courses in the same area can look and play very differently depending on growing environments, infrastructure, maintenance budget, and many other factors 👇
One pitch. Three teams. More than 40 matches ahead.
Eastleigh FC Head Groundsman George has started the season using Greenmaster Liquid Advance High N and Greenmaster Liquid Iron Effect to support recovery, turf density and colour during periods of sustained wear.
The club is now transitioning towards a full ICL nutrition programme, incorporating both liquid and granular solutions.

If you are struggling with blue-green algae on putting greens, this article can help you solve the problem and address the underlying causes so the algae doesn't come back 👇
What killed the grass in this picture? Too much traffic? A disease? Poor irrigation coverage? All of the above or something else entirely? Diagnosing the reasons behind dead grass on a golf course is not always easy 👇
Stress First, Disease Later: Preparing Your Greens for #Anthracnose.
"Anthracnose is like the inevitable cold you get a week after a particularly gruelling renovation period." https://t.co/qhug1WM4mf
Cyanobacteria, commonly known as blue-green algae, can be a stubborn problem on putting greens. Successful control depends on dealing with the algae and correcting the underlying conditions that cause it 👇
Golf course irrigation systems have been busy during this recent heat wave. Keeping them finely tuned and ready to deliver water when and where it's needed is a mix of art and science 👇
Early season stress is already evident in the collaborative trial with @SyngentaTurfUK at @GantonGC , with untreated plots recording less than 8% volumetric moisture content.
Plots under an ICL & Syngenta ITM strategy are showing improved turf quality, density, colour and moisture retention.
Great to share early observations with the Ganton greenkeeping team.

#Drought conditions continue to strengthen. Many lawns require about 1 inch of water per week, but #TifTuf performs with far less:
• Reduce irrigation to ½ inch per week, or use 1 inch every 2 weeks.
To further protect your lawn during drought:
• Hold off on fertilizer applications
• Raise your mowing height to around 2 inches (or up one notch)
Drought conditions put every landscape to the test - but with TifTuf, performance doesn’t have to suffer.
Thanks for doing your part to reduce outdoor water use.
Supers, it's time to have a talk about Anthracnose.
Firstly, prevention is much more successful when you mix a Systemic (which goes inside the plant) with a Contact (which stays on the outside).

When it comes to putting green aeration in spring, deciding between smaller holes that heal quickly or larger holes that can linger is never easy. Whatever you choose, communication is key ➡️https://t.co/KbGzT84ZSE
We surveyed more than 170 superintendents from golf courses across the country to learn about their putting green aeration programs. The results highlight key trends in tactics and timing, along with a wide range of approaches to this important practice 👇
Dollar Spot is still a relatively new disease to the UK, but as temperatures and humidity increases so does the risk of an outbreak! This fungal disease is spread through small bits of mycelium, moving in water or spread on shoes, golf equipment or turf machinery. The symptoms:
❌ Tanned spots around 2-5cm in diameter in highly managed turf such as tees, fairways and greens
❌ Hourglass shaped lesions seen on the leaf blade on closer inspection
❌ Spots can coalesce and wipe out large areas
As with most diseases, moisture management is key to reducing the possibility of an outbreak.
Exteris Stressgard is an excellent fungicide for Dollar Spot preventation, delivering immediate aesthetic improvement and long-term plant health. Find out more here 👉 https://t.co/6W93e8lNpy
