USGA 5: Tom Gould & Zach Nicoludis

In this episode of Rolling with the USGA Green Section, Adam and Brian dive into two timely articles from the USGA Green Section Record and sit down with the experts behind them. First, Tom Gould joins us to discuss controlling blue-green algae on putting greens. We talk about why it develops, the conditions that encourage it and strategies Superintendents can use to manage it. Then, Zac Nicklaus joins the show to break down his article, "A Superintendent's Guide to Surviving Summer." From heat and humidity to drought, disease pressure, irrigation challenges and everything else summer throws at a golf course, Zac shares some practical insight for getting through the toughest months of the year.   Two great articles. Two great conversations. And plenty of information you can take back to the golf course.   This is Rolling with the USGA Green Section, presented by Turf Today.   LINKS Read Tom's article on USGA Green Section Record here Read Zach's article on USGA Green Section Record here More info on USGA Moisture meter here Post a message for Thank a Superintendent day through GCSAA here Buy Turf Today merchandise here
