April 2017 Sports Pitch Maintenance Diaries

Now is the busiest of times for all groundsmen and greenkeepers; temperatures have begun to take off and the grass is making the most of it - as are the weeds, pests and diseases!

At this time of the year, keeping an eye on what diseases and pests are around to damage your turf is critical. Early identification with subsequent early treatment, will minimise any longer term impact on the quality of your surfaces.

In this month's diaries, in addition to the general maintenance advice, we focus on fungicides and treatments available for turf pests and diseases.

Also, we have added links to specific sections of our popular Forum. It is particularly active at this time of the year, as our groundsmen, greenkeepers and industry specialists discuss and offer assistance to each other on current topics - it's well worth a visit - Pitchcare Forum.

Enjoy.
