I discuss two blog posts---one is pitch marks and what I know about reducing damage from them. The other is zoysia seedheads, specifically on manilagrass, and the interesting phenomenon of year round seed production in short days and high temperatures near the equator.

This episode discusses two posts.
One is about Zoysia seedheads and the interesting and troublesome phenomenon of seedhead production for more than half the year: https://www.asianturfgrass.com/post/a-hypothesis-about-fecundity-of-zoysia/
The second post is about pitch marks on greens and about the one sure way I know of to reduce their size and severity---firmer green surfaces: https://www.asianturfgrass.com/post/pitch-marks-that-last-for-days/

What is The ATC Doublecut with Micah Woods?
I discuss ATC blog posts, with supplementary information, stories, and the reasons why I thought the topic was worth writing about, and worth reading about. Thus, a doublecut of these topics. This covers grass selection, playability, and all the work done to create a certain type of turfgrass surface.
