What you should know about soil test P, spring growth, and #TurfSpeedo calculations

The ATC Doublecut with Micah Woods

I describe what we can learn from looking at five years of Mehlich 3 soil test phosphorus results from golf course putting greens, how to calculate the turfgrass speedo in a standard way, rather than in a chaotic way, and recommend an episode of the Cornell Turfgrass Show that asks if soil testing is the answer to all your problems.

These are the links to posts and videos mentioned in the show:
