We are so excited to welcome you to our stand J108 at Saltex! Remember to ask @Deborah_LVS for a complimentary cyst nematode assessment when stoping by!

[LaganValleyScientific @LV_Scientific]

Here at LVS we take on a range of projects and all are custom designed! This week we start preparations to assess the effects of different turf cultivars on rootzone biology! 🧫 #research

[LaganValleyScientific @LV_Scientific]

@J_J_Dempsey We haven’t tried technology like this. Field data & further work is essential because the process will impact everything. There’s no data in the publication supporting selectivity for pests/pathogens; look forward to seeing impacts on the plants, the targets, and the non-targets!

Thank you to the local NI golf clubs who donated time (and turf!) to our research this month! It’s exciting that the preliminary data shows some striking biological patterns! We will be expanding this study to local NI pitches! Interested in collaborating? DM us or @Deborah_LVS!

[LaganValleyScientific @LV_Scientific]

If you can spare a small amount of time in our research project next week, we would love to hear from you! DM or email us or @Deborah_LVS #lovelaganvalley

@LV_Scientific has a dedicated turf clinic that specialises in ppns as well as a turf research programme. In the 2021 plan, 20 complimentary NDI assessments are available (N. Ireland only). DM/email me if interested and available to take a sample w/c 14th June! Plz RT (5/5)

Sabine, Kate, and I wrote an article on gray leaf spot. There’s some tips to ID it, and importantly prevent/manage it. We hope you find this useful and you can find out more about us below #Teamwork #PlantHealthWeek

Some excellent discussions thisafternoon on managing PPNs in warm season turf! Thanks to everyone who tuned in today and especially to Polyclean Turf Division in UAE for hosting @Deborah_LVS & @fleming_colin1. We hope you enjoyed it as much as we did!

[John Smart @jontysafe]

@LV_Scientific @Deborah_LVS And a great job you do too

[LaganValleyScientific @LV_Scientific]

At a first glance this might look like a root knot nematode problem. But it isn’t! It’s another kind of PPN. When cysts are exposed to low temperatures we find juveniles hatching. If you’re planning turf nematode testing, we can help you track them ⛳️🏏⚽️🏈🎾

[LaganValleyScientific @LV_Scientific]

We hope you enjoyed the 🪱 talks by @Deborah_LVS at @BIGGALtd’s Continue To Learn this week! @SamiStrutt, @DebBIGGA & the whole team did such a fantastic job putting that together with so many excellent speakers!

[LaganValleyScientific @LV_Scientific]

@RaymondCollett1 Likewise to you @RaymondCollett1 ... let’s hope 2021 doesn’t ‘Spiral’ out of control! 😉

[LaganValleyScientific @LV_Scientific]

Wishing you all a peaceful & relaxing New Year! Here’s to the year ahead of us!

[Dr Deborah Cox @Deborah_LVS]

Interested to know a little about current PPN trends in poa? I’ve condensed year 1 ‘NemTracker’ data into 15 slides for Continue to Learn! Albeit sad there’s no annual gathering this year, you can still join in online by contacting @BIGGALtd #lovelaganvalley @LV_Scientific

[LaganValleyScientific @LV_Scientific]

Another year, another lockdown...but just like last time we are here to help. We’ve been preparing new guidance for sampling post-Brexit and there are some important changes! We are currently able to accept & process turf advisory samples. Contact @Deborah_LVS for details

[LaganValleyScientific @LV_Scientific]

@fleming_colin1 Maybe it’s a rebel...or maybe it’s a mock-tini 😇🤣

[LaganValleyScientific @LV_Scientific]

@J_J_Dempsey Likewise to you & Mary! Looking forward to hearing & seeing your research results! 👍

[LaganValleyScientific @LV_Scientific]

We have been a bit quiet these last couple of weeks 👀 but for a good reason! We are now proudly ISO9001 accredited 👌#qualitymatters #HappyFridayThe13th

....now let’s get some factsheets out there! 🐛 nematodes are next week!

[LaganValleyScientific @LV_Scientific]

The people have spoken. Nematodes are up first!

[LaganValleyScientific @LV_Scientific]

Happy Monday everyone!

Over the next few months we will be preparing a series of ‘popular topic’ blogs & turf sampling helpsheets! The question is though, what would you like to hear about first? #LoveLearning
