  • Zoysia, water use, and fact checking

    I showed photos from a post on zoysia, water use, and fact checking, to show that when irrigation is restricted, and it doesn't rain---drought conditions---zoysia needs more water than bermuda to stay green and growing. The post is here: https://www.asianturfgrass.com/post/zoysia-and-water-use/

  • One thing I'd like everyone to understand about MLSN

    This episode is a discussion of this blog post and article: https://www.asianturfgrass.com/post/one-thing-i-wish-everyone-understood-about-mlsn/

    Grass uses nutrients, so we can expect the soil nutrient level to be lower tomorrow than it is today. By making a prediction of the decline in soil nutrient levels for a specific time duration, one can come up with a fertilizer recommendation that ensures the grass will be supplied with all the nutrients it can use.

    PACE Turf's climate appraisal form makes all these calculations for you: https://www.paceturf.org/index.php/journal/climate

  • The growth ratio: is the grass growing faster, or slower, than expected?

    Grass growth varies by season. And a common question is "how much should I expect my grass to be growing?" The turfgrass growth ratio, conceived of by Jason Haines, is a way to express the actual growth in a seasonally-adjusted way.

    The blog posts on this are at:

    First one: https://www.asianturfgrass.com/post/clipping-volume-growth-ratio/
    Second one: https://www.asianturfgrass.com/post/temperature-growth-seasonal-changes-optimum-clipvol/
