Mays cold weather disappeared around the last weekend and since then we&rsquo;ve been in decent growing conditions so for most the problem has been put to bed for now.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>I&rsquo;ve tried to answer as many questions directly as I can, but I&rsquo;m still pulling together a best practise plan based on what we&rsquo;ve learned to date. So watch this space for that.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>I have been asked to talk at the \u00ab\u00a0Emergency Summit looking at control of leatherjackets using Integrated Pest Management\u00a0\u00bb <a href=\"https:\/\/www.syngentaturf.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">click here for details &#8230;<\/a> that will shed some light on what the future of managing this challenge looks like.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dollar spot<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The weather conditions through the beginning of June were optimum for Dollar spot development with the Smith-Kerns-model show some petty high pressure, I put this blog together and since then the temperatures have dropped! However humidity is the biggest drive of this problem so for some it is still very relevant. <\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/greencastadvisory.com\/2021\/06\/19\/dollar-spot-frequently-asked-questions\/\">Dollar spot FAQ&rsquo;s<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/greencastadvisory.com\/2021\/06\/19\/managing-dollar-spot\/\">Managing Dollar spot<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Managing heat stress<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>It feels almost laughable that 2 weeks ago we were all worried about heat and drought stress, unlike now where people (particularly down South) are more concerned with fixing washed out paths and bunkers whilst pushing water of off greens.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The challenge has shifted to humidity and managing disease but we still have July and August ahead of us and you don&rsquo;t need to look too far to see record breaking high temperatures. Whilst we&rsquo;re not seeing them now, the likelihood is we will see them again soon.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/greencastadvisory.com\/2021\/06\/10\/heat-management-strategies-for-turf\/\">Managing heat stress blog<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Anthracnose<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Cold slow start the the season, Hot and dry early June followed by wet conditions whilst everyone is trying to present the course at its best for club championships and local events.
