Somewhat summer-like conditions this past week in the Mid-Atlantic have "opened up the flood gates" on many fronts on the golf course and have brought...
Since all of the locations I am monitoring have moved into Stage 1 or beyond, and adult activity of the spring migration has peaked or is past peak, we...
The past week was relatively cool in most parts of Pennsylvania, with only a few Growing Degree Days (GDDs) being accumulated. Our research sites in...
Black ice and snow flurries kicked at western New York Wednesday morning, reminding us of the vagaries of spring. A step back into cooler temperatures...
The lights are on and just about everyone is home. The past two weeks have brought more consistent spring-like temperatures in the Mid-Atlantic and coincidentally...
It has been very cool and wet the last few days in northern New England. The weather has stalled the accumulation of degree days and the development of...
Last week marked the Cherry Blossom Festival in Washington, D.C. The afternoons were marked with warm sun and many different plants in the landscape were...
Our lab spent much of the week looking for annual bluegrass weevil (ABW) adults, and trying to get a handle on where the majority of the adult population...
Annual bluegrass weevils (ABW) are finally on the move in New England. We visited a site about 20 miles from the University of Massachusetts campus earlier...
As expected, the warm Easter weekend shook things up in the mid-Atlantic from a growing degree day (GDD) and phenological indicator standpoint.
Albeit slowly, we have started to accumulate growing degree days (GDD). Currently, the Maryland sites have about 30 GDD. Sites in Philadelphia and Southern...
As spring-like conditions slowly make their way back into the Northeast, we can consider this the "calm before the storm". We have not yet accumulated...
As encouraging as it was to see some adult Annual Bluegrass Weevils (ABW) last week, if for no other reason than to get ourselves calibrated to begin...
Based on my observations through our own studies and conversations with colleagues, USGA agronomists and superintendents estimate that any golf course...
As eager as every turf professional is to get the season started and break cabin fever, based on some discoveries on March 27th, this is also evident with ABW.
Before WeevilTrak™, there was more confusion as to timing and choice of insecticides to control the annual bluegrass weevil (ABW). This confusion led...
This is the first year I will be participating in WeevilTrak™, though I have been an interested observer since the program's inception. I have been investigating...
Insecticide resistance in annual bluegrass weevil (ABW) populations is a growing problem. It is a course-by-course issue based on excessive insecticide...
