The temperature-based turfgrass growth potential (GP) in words — not numbers

The temperature-based turfgrass growth potential (GP) is a utility function that expresses the potential of temperature to affect shoot growth. Without going into too many numbers or the GP equation, I explained what GP is and how it is used.

I discussed these posts and shows about GP:

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.
