A turf paradox: better turf in soils with lower nutrient content
You can sometimes, perhaps more often than you would think, find soil under good turf to have lower nutrient content than does soil under poor quality turf. In this episode, I explain why that is, what the implications of this phenomenon are, and what you can do about it.
