Until 2009, no one was in charge of breeding the best grasses for North Carolina’s varied climate. That’s where Susana Milla-Lewis came in, filling a gap in @NCState’s existing strengths as the university’s first turfgrass breeder. theturfzone.com/tcnc/?ascat=9&…

Had a wonderful experience talking about weed management research using spray drones in a field day at Havre, MT. All the interests, questions, comments, and feedbacks from growers and large numbers of audiences were amazing. @MSUCollegeofAg

Field day was great today with so many weed management issues to talk about with @IAStateWeedSci. It was such a learning experience and if you miss it this year, come next time.

Brown patch showing off over the past few weeks on cool-season grasses.

Installing bentgrass into this P. annua green to evaluate encroachment. One study has mat layer pH gradient from ~5.0 to 7.5. Large differences in P. annua quality across the gradient. 2nd study will evaluate pH, phosphorus and PGR programs. Supported by USGA Davis and Tri-State

Looking forward to my first Southeastern Turfgrass Conference! Be sure to sign up! #UGATurf #TurfgrassConference #WeedScience #Turfgrass
