SUMMARY:Color my world: Use of turf colorants | Grady Miller\, Ph.D.\, North Carolina State University
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Grady Miller from North Carolina State University presents a comprehensive educational discussion on turf grass colorants for golf course management. \nThe presentation covers the fundamentals of when and where to use colorants as alternatives to overseeding\, particularly for winter color on dormant warm-season grasses like Bermuda and Zoysia. Miller explains the differences between pigments and colorants\, their application rates\, longevity\, and cost considerations. He discusses various application methods from large boom sprayers to hand wands\, and shares research findings on color retention\, effects on photosynthesis\, and potential issues like product transfer onto uniforms. \nThe webinar includes practical examples from golf courses\, combination approaches with overseeding at reduced rates\, and innovative uses like colored sand for topdressing. Miller emphasizes that while these products offer cost-effective alternatives to overseeding with benefits like no spring competition issues\, they also have limitations such as shorter color duration and lack of the glossy appearance of live grass. \n\n

SUMMARY:Surprising surfactants! Key insights from six years of turfgrass research
DESCRIPTION:In this TurfNet University webinar sponsored by LebanonTurf\, John Dempsey\, Ph.D.\, will unpack the real value of surfactants\, wetting agents\, and penetrants in modern turf management. Moving beyond their reputation as simple water movers\, this session examines what these products do in the rootzone—and whether they truly deliver a worthwhile return on investment. \nDrawing on six years of rigorous turfgrass research\, including recently published peer-reviewed studies\, the webinar will: \n\nDemonstrate how surfactants can significantly improve turf health and quality—even under periods of regular rainfall\nExplain how different surfactant chemistries\, including the latest nanoparticle-based formulations\, influence rootzone moisture dynamics\nHighlight measurable impacts on turf performance\, from plant health and visual quality to consistency and surface playability\nProvide guidance on practical use patterns and decision-making to maximize benefits and justify costs\n\nYou’ll come away with a clearer\, research-based understanding of how to select and use surfactants to enhance turf performance across golf courses\, sports fields\, and high-performance lawns. \nCLICK HERE TO REGISTER >>>

SUMMARY:Turning turf trials into real-world results – A practical guide to turfgrass research and data analysis
DESCRIPTION:In this TurfNet University webinar presented by LebanonTurf\, John Dempsey\, Ph.D.\, walks attendees step-by-step through the research process for turfgrass and golf course management — from planning and applying treatments to collecting data\, analysing results\, and clearly presenting your findings. Using real-world examples from turf trials\, he will discuss how to design simple\, practical research on your own course\, apply and compare treatments such as products\, cultivars\, and irrigation strategies\, and collect reliable data on turf quality\, pests\, water use\, soil health\, and playability. \nAttendees will learn simple statistical techniques to interpret results\, and how to present clear\, confident findings. \nThis session is ideal for greenkeepers\, course managers\, agronomists and anyone who wants to turn trial and error into evidence-based decision-making on the golf course. \nCLICK HERE TO REGISTER >>>
