Topdressing by rote isn't the best way to do it, with Chris Tritabaugh

Chris Tritabaugh joined me to discuss sand topdressing, a long-running conversation we've been having with Dr. John Kaminski, the quantities of sand and N that are recommended vs. the amounts that seem to be required in modern turf maintenance, and much more.

We discussed this post from the ATC website about nitrogen, coring, and sand: https://www.asianturfgrass.com/post/i-was-surprised-to-read-this-about-nitrogen-coring-and-sand/

Chris and I spoke about a similar topic in this ATC Office Hours episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=atipVSlT1ws

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.
