Great Turfgrass Field Day at PDREC with @aw_gore. Excellent education, weather, and fellowship. Thanks to all of our sponsors contributing to this event and the additional event with @DrBertMcCarty1 earlier this month.

Haven’t posted a #Nematuesday in sometime. Check out our newly updated mist chamber courtesy of the Buildings and Grounds group here at PDREC. We’ve already put this to some good use in testing research plots. Many samples ahead!

Dealt with spring dead spot or large patch in SC and looking for prevention this year? Be sure to watch soil 🌡️ in the week to come. Haven’t tripped the 72F mark yet but cooler weather has arrived and the forecast ahead details consistent low night-⏰ 🌡️.
