  • Two easy methods to estimate N mineralization under turfgrass

    Two easy methods to estimate N mineralization under turfgrass

    · The ATC Doublecut with Micah Woods

    You can expect soil organic matter to be 5% nitrogen, and you can expect from 1 to 4% of that organic nitrogen to mineralize in one year. You can also calculate estimated daily mineralization and sum it to get weekly, monthly, and annual totals.

    Dr. Henry Qu, partner and data scientist at Oxbridge Economics, joined me to talk about data analysis, and statistics, and how to try to learn things in turfgrass science. We discussed NTEP, posterior distributions, disease resistance, ANOVA, total organic material expectations by species, the process of learning, and much more.

    Doing more work to produce better turf with Jon Wall

    · The ATC Doublecut with Micah Woods

    Jon Wall, golf course superintendent at Shanqin Bay, joined me to discuss doing more work to make grass better, rather than doing less. And also about what I'd want everyone to do, which is doing the right amount of work for your property.

    We talked about many things, starting off with:

    Carl Schimenti from Cornell University joined me to discuss intro to #MLSN explanations vs. using MLSN the way it is designed to be used. We also talked a lot about ball roll assessment using the #BobbleTest, and the USGA GS3 ball, and other methods.

  • Checking phosphorus gradients on putting greens with an upper and lower rootzone sample

    Checking phosphorus gradients on putting greens with an upper and lower rootzone sample

    · The ATC Doublecut with Micah Woods

    Soil P, pH, and salinity are a few things that likely vary by depth in your rootzone. I've started recommending that 20% of putting greens tested be done with a sample divided at the 5 cm depth. Send the lab a 0-5 cm and 5-10 cm depth sample from that green, rather than the standard 0-10 cm depth sample.

    I discussed this blog post: https://www.asianturfgrass.com/post/reconstructing-soil-p-from-disassembled-soil-samples/
