The ATC Doublecut with Micah Woods

Bill Kreuser from GreenKeeper joined me to discuss how much grass grows, the complicated problems involved when sand is mixed with clippings, growth regulator adjustments, leaf nutrient content, soil surfactant effect duration, and more. #ClipVolWe discussed the "Sand in clippings" post from the ATC website: https://www.asianturfgrass.com/post/sand-in-clippings/You can read more about our discussion of topics such as PGR and soil surfactant scheduling at https://www.greenkeeperapp.com/Read more about all kinds of turfgrass topics at https://www.asianturfgrass.com/Get ATC newsletters at https://www.asianturfgrass.com/newsletter/Turfgrass information and decision-making tools at https://www.paceturf.org/PACE Turf YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/user/paceturfATC's YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/asianturfgrasscenter Subscribe to my new podcast, Turf Without Borders, at https://turfwb.asianturfgrass.com/subscribeRegister for the Canadian Golf Course Management Conference in Niagara Falls at https://ogsa.ca/golfsupers-2025thecanadian/Register for the BIGGA Continue to Learn programme in Harrogate: https://www.btme.org.uk/continue-to-learn.htmlRegister for my seminar at the GCSAA Conference and Show: https://gcsaaconference.com/education/session-detail?evt_id=737742c0-bb52-4192-ab34-f06c2413df04&ses_id=d85db2dc-ec5b-48c4-820f-57abce2a5193If you'd like to attend the 15th International Turfgrass Research Conference in Japan, here's a direct link to the conference website: https://itrc2025.turfsociety.com/

The PACE Turf growth potential equation has one variable (the actual air temperature) and two constants. The constants are optimum air temperature and a term for variance that controls the shape of the curve as the actual temperature moves away from the optimum temperature. It's a little more complicated than that, because the constants change depending on whether you are making the calculation for cool-season grass, warm-season grass, and on whether you are using the Fahrenheit temperature scale or the Celsius temperature scale.The blog post discussed is https://www.asianturfgrass.com/post/calculating-gp/PACE Turf climate appraisal forms at: https://www.paceturf.org/journal/climateMore about GP and the variance term at https://www.asianturfgrass.com/post/what-is-variance-in-growth-potential-equation/Read more about all kinds of turfgrass topics at https://www.asianturfgrass.com/Get ATC newsletters at https://www.asianturfgrass.com/newsletter/Turfgrass information and decision-making tools at https://www.paceturf.org/PACE Turf YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/user/paceturfATC's YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/asianturfgrasscenter Subscribe to my new podcast, Turf Without Borders, at https://turfwb.asianturfgrass.com/subscribeRegister for the Canadian Golf Course Management Conference in Niagara Falls at https://ogsa.ca/golfsupers-2025thecanadian/Register for the BIGGA Continue to Learn programme in Harrogate: https://www.btme.org.uk/continue-to-learn.htmlRegister for my seminar at the GCSAA Conference and Show: https://gcsaaconference.com/education/session-detail?evt_id=737742c0-bb52-4192-ab34-f06c2413df04&ses_id=d85db2dc-ec5b-48c4-820f-57abce2a5193If you'd like to attend the 15th International Turfgrass Research Conference in Japan, here's a direct link to the conference website: https://itrc2025.turfsociety.com/

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.The blog post discussed is: https://www.asianturfgrass.com/post/estimating-nitrogen-mineralization-an-example/Subscribe to the Turf Without Borders podcast: https://turfwb.asianturfgrass.com/subscribeRead more about all kinds of turfgrass topics at https://www.asianturfgrass.com/Get ATC newsletters at https://www.asianturfgrass.com/newsletter/Turfgrass information and decision-making tools at https://www.paceturf.org/PACE Turf YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/user/paceturfATC's YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/asianturfgrasscenter Subscribe to my new podcast, Turf Without Borders, at https://turfwb.asianturfgrass.com/subscribeRegister for the Canadian Golf Course Management Conference in Niagara Falls at https://ogsa.ca/golfsupers-2025thecanadian/Register for the BIGGA Continue to Learn programme in Harrogate: https://www.btme.org.uk/continue-to-learn.htmlRegister for my seminar at the GCSAA Conference and Show: https://gcsaaconference.com/education/session-detail?evt_id=737742c0-bb52-4192-ab34-f06c2413df04&ses_id=d85db2dc-ec5b-48c4-820f-57abce2a5193If you'd like to attend the 15th International Turfgrass Research Conference in Japan, here's a direct link to the conference website: https://itrc2025.turfsociety.com/
