Frank Rossi, Micah Woods, and Surface Performance

Micah was a guest on Dr. Frank Rossi’s podcast for a discussion that covers playing surface performance and the work turf managers do to produce those surfaces.

We discussed nutrients, growth rate, sand topdressing, PGRs, organic matter, shear strength, growth potential, PACE Turf, and what we talked about in Japan regarding standard sand amounts.
