Our recent guest on the EarthWorks Podcast was Edward Olsen, who is currently The Parks and Forestry Supervisor for the Town of Needham, Massachusetts. Ed’s career has covered a long stint in the golf course industry before taking a job in public service. In this Turf Talk we pull out a clip from the Podcast where he shares a something he learned from one of his early mentors, a gentleman that he calls one of the greatest agronomy minds in the business. When we asked what he learned, he told us about scouting for insects and diseases and one of the fascinating tricks he picked up was what he called the 150 rule. The 150 rule is when the combination of temperature and humidity combine to be over 150 for three days. This is the point at which he knew he would be battling disease pressure and it allowed him to react quicker with greater success. It was a great Podcast, funny and informative, well worth your time!
