Not every innovation is discussed indoors this week. Spending some time away from Orange County Convention Center learning about a trio of @SyngentaTurf innovations at Orange Tree Golf Club.

If you've been using the Smith-Kerns $ spot Model during this #nohumiditysummer in the upper Midwest you have saved at least 2-3 fungicide apps targeting $ spot already this year compared to a calendar program. If you aren't using the model, you should: tdl.wisc.edu/dollar-spot-mod…

Billbug are on the move or will be very soon across most of the region. If adults are your target (contact insecticides), or you want to target larvae inside the plant (systemic insecticides), now is the time. extension.entm.purdue.edu/pu…

Oftentimes I tweet out messages to extend spray intervals when disease pressure is low. This...is not one of those times. Using both the SK Model and your eyes, it's a feisty crop of dollar spot right now.

Prime time for billbug damage in Meyer zoysiagrass. Lots of large larvae, pupae and even some callow adults. But, most of them in our plots are bluegrass billbugs! Revenge treatments aren’t a great of option. extension.entm.purdue.edu/pu…

Annual bluegrass weevil appears to have arrived in Michigan and although we don't believe it is widespread at this point, it definitely can cause significant damage as witnessed at one golf course in southeast Michigan. canr.msu.edu/news/suspected-…

Results in wheat roots indicated propiconazole uptake didn't require plant energy. Assuming this applies to turf leaves and to other fungicides, it means plants don't need to be actively growing for snow mold products to work. Our own snow mold research also supports this.

I’d say the early season app of #Acelepryn is working on keeping these #Armyworms at bay here @ChambersburgCC. @TurfEnto @edowling44

In WI most years, dollar spot pressure is consistently medium/high during the summer, evidenced by a relatively flat Dollar Spot Risk line. This year the line looks like an EKG printout...which has offered multiple periods to extend fungicide intervals. tdl.wisc.edu/dollar-spot-mod…

I know mole crickets can travel, but in the airport AND claiming a checked bag is just plain ridiculous. @KCIAirport #molecricketfun #gieseonthegreen Probably an immature nymph. Walked away while I was talking to it…
