S2 E72 When Soil Tests Come Out, the BS Flows!

Wednesday Aug 07, 2024

Turfgrass Epistemology

Turfgrass epistemology explorers the question 'How do we know what we know about turfgrass science?'. My name is Travis Shaddox and I am a past assistant professor at the Universities of Florida and Kentucky and I have worked in the golf, lawn care, sport turf, and fertilizer sales industries. I am mostly retired now and use my time to conduct a few experiments related to soil testing in turfgrass systems.

The objective of this channel is to provide turfgrass managers and DIYers with evidence-based information to help make their turfgrass experience more fulfilling. Scientific publications can be challenging to understand and it is my goal to interpret these publications in a way that is easy to understand and immediately impactful.
