Is Iron Sucrate and Iron EDTA Usefull? Iron EDTA might work on soils with a pH less than 7, but the dosage in many products is too low to make a difference. #turfgrass #iron Full Video: https://t.co/OK6FAAiQVH

Best way to put the “still using fairway mowers” rumour to bed is to get rid of them. Both Jd 8000 gone, Fairway mowers to follow later this week. Over 12 months now since a fairway mower graced the fairways @Hillside_GC

Yes. Thanks Brian. Course was awesome and kudos to @GreenGCA on the recent work. Definitely needs to be a bucket list course for any golfer.
@iTweetTurf @PSUTurf Congrats to Penn State students for a spirited competition in challenging weather! Franklin Hills was fantastic, thanks @BSchweihofer for hosting!

Fall colors coming in nicely in State College. Going to be a nice drive to Detroit this weekend for the Cutter Cup at Franklin Hills! Let’s see if we can bring the cup back with us and end this drought.

What do all of these white boxes with ultradwarf bermudagrass samples have in common besides the box itself? They all were diagnosed with mini ring this week. We are diagnosing a LOT of UDB with that disease right now. Heads up!

Saw lots of mini ring today. Visited a research trial where 21-day rotations of Resilia and Kalida were doing great. Also saw a pretty nasty breakout of mini ring on fairways. Lots of symptoms now as the Bermuda is slowing down.

Coach Franklin at Penn State is feeling like a lot of Supers did this summer! WHEN IS THIS EVER GOING TO END! But he needs to do like Supers do dig in and figure it out, FAST! I was in the hot seat a lot but managed to extricate myself!

I feel better knowing that I won’t be able to attend the National Championship since I’ll be in Australia.

How many bottles of defoamer?
Hey Supers, if you are on the fence with EOP, I’ll bet this video changes your mind. Just a few things you can do with the savings. Swag - @BRANDT_co @EnvuGolfUS @SyngentaTurf @TheGCSNetwork @ParAide @SiteOneSupply Lyla on point @DogsOfTurf

Sending another request for anyone in a warm environment interested in hosting a student or two for a winter internship (late Nov to early Jan). Housing required. I’ve got several students interested in getting some more maintenance experience.
