John Watson is removing thatch (you can see pieces flying in the air!) using the verticutter. Vertical mowing helps to keep that plant growing laterally (side to side) instead of only growing vertically. It can also help with water penetration and improve vigour on sportsfields

When you have a question about grass, who you gunna call?
Dr. Eric Lyons talked to a meteorologist today about how to care for turf during drought. This segment will air on the Weather Network 🎥

#Fertilizer prices are reacting sharply following Russia's invasion of Ukraine as the implications begin to settle in. #Urea, #ammonia, granular #phosphates and #potash have charged upwards as already-tight markets face the prospect of more dramatic supply restrictions
