Now that nobody is thinking about snow mold, the 2012 UW Snow Mold Reports have been posted online at the Turfgrass Diagnostic Lab’s website in the ‘News’ section on the righthand side (http://www.tdl.wisc.edu/). Reports and pictures from 2 sites in Wisconsin, 1 site in Michigan’s UP, and 2 sites in Minnesota have all been posted. Unfortunately, the mild winter led to acceptable snow mold results being obtained only from the Wawonowin site. The reports will also be permanently housed on the TDL’s ‘Research’ page.
Special thanks to Brian Horgan and Andy Hollman for their help with the Minnesota sites, and also to the following superintendents for hosting both our snow mold trials and other winter research:
- Antigo Bass Lake – Dave Van Auken
- The Legacy at Craguns – Matt McKinnon
- Les Bolstad GC- Brent Belanger
- Odana Hills GC- Jeff Jushka
- Sentryworld GC – Gary Tanko
- Wawonowin CC – Andy Hakkarinen
Please call or email with any questions, concerns, or comments you may have regarding these reports.
Thanks,
Paul
