GUILTY LOOKING OR WHAT? Suspected of depositing eggs of turf eating, BIRD FOOD! Assailant spotted with rear-end embedded in our trial green September 4th. Insecticides need to be out mid to late October to mitigate turf damage next spring! @Turfpigments @greenkeepingire

@OSU_ATI_Turf @J_J_Dempsey @BrilmanLeah @malherbologist There is some potential for perennial rye to contribute to greens surfaces in the future. We have found it to have good density at low HOC when N levels are high. We are also working with multiple bent and fescue varieties which look very promising from sustainable perspective.

If you believe the level of compensation within our industry is too low. Don't like, retweet this add. The more people realise that the bar has been reset the better. Still a long way to go but at least one employer is prepared to put it out there, stepping out from the herd!

greater output with no decernable retuction in surface quality. Triplex mowing will become the norm so your efforts would be better servied awakening the golfing world to the tsunami of labour shortages now in transit before standards really suffer. @USGA @RandA @iTweetTurf

[ISTI @ISTI_2012]

There has been a shortage of labour in the turfgrass industry for some time now. Covid has exacibated the issue further with even very high end facilities now struggle to attract and retain. It's a result of decades of poor working conditions. Mowing with a triples offers

I knew there was something weird about the greens @LIVGolfInv the greens were cut with triplex mowers. That’s a joke
