Identifying Turfgrass Water Stress
About this video
To produce high quality turfgrass, few things are more influential than maintaining proper moisture levels. While turfgrass water stress is easily identifiable, it is often incorrectly diagnosed as pest-related damage. In the video below, we show the physical changes that occur when turfgrass is subject to water stress and we demonstrate the value of using wetting agents to alleviate hydrophobic soil conditions.
