TurfGvX

An anonymous golf course superintendent sent me this message: I’m blown away by the quality of these surfaces with an amount of nitrogen I would’ve thought was far too small.

I’ve been recommending the Turf GvX as a way to check the observed (measured) growth of the grass at any particular time of year.1 The clipping volume on its own tells you how much the grass is actually growing.

This is a common question. I heard another one recently, too. “How big of a bucket should I get to measure clipping volume?” I like to answer these questions by looking at the site-specific conditions.
