Joel Simmons and Jack Higgins - A Midsummer Update 2024

Jack Higgins and Joel Simmons take some time out from a busy travel schedule to share their thoughts as we hit the midsummer point of 2024. They talked about some of the great golf tournaments we have had a chance to participate in this year, about some horrible weather conditions that we are seeing, and some ideas to fight your way through these conditions. As with any mid-season review, and especially this year’s, we talked about how we are seeing sodium and bicarbonates building up in clients' soil audits and the potential harm that will do to turf quality. One solution that is really taking shape is the use of KVantage in the spray tank. The available potassium is showing great promise in keeping potassium in the plant and buffering out sodium which helps to slow down sodium induced wilt stress. As always we had a lot of fun and a lot of laughs while creating this podcast, but we did cover a lot of valuable ground when it comes to getting through the rest of the season.
