University of California Turf Disease Diagnostic Report:
November 19, 2007
Sorry for the lack of consistent
reports from California
– the last two months have been a lot of traveling, giving talks and writing
reports on summer research. Speaking of meetings – it was great to see
everyone at the GCSA State Meeting last week in Monterey!
As far as diseases – expect
to continue to see rapid blight, brown ring patch, brown patch on warm season
grass and potentially some pink snow mold in colder locations.
The lab is short on hands this
week for the Thanksgiving holiday so samples may not get done in a timely
manner. Emailing pictures and phone calls will help with on the fly diagnoses
this week.
The Lions play the Packers on
Thursday, with the Lions trying to break the Packer’s 5-game win
streak. You would think that with Detroit
being voted the U.S.’s
most dangerous city this week (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21870766/?GT1=10547)
– that the Lions would have the edge on this one.
Travel safe for the holidays and
eat lots of turkey and pumpkin pie!
