Re: Soil Test Interpretations Begin February 1st
...and I have increased my output by 50%, as I spent time creating blocks of pre-written text to avoid repetitive effort -- carefully written stuff that make sure that everyone gets a better, complete report and we're not subject to accidental omissions. These will be available (but still in final t...

Soil Test Interpretations Begin February 1st
It's that time - we're just a couple of weeks from when we'll begin accepting soil test results for interpretation and the creation of (FREE!!) remediation plans!! There are no changes in the practices expected to get a soil test interpreted in 2021, although the use of Humates will be a standard it...

Re: How Is Everyone Doing? (Coronavirus)
I felt like someone lifted a big weight off of me when I got an appointment to get my Covid vaccine, minutes after the law changed in NY. January 22nd is my lucky day!

Looking Forward to 2021 Season
OK, the Holidays are over and we're in the Long Stretch of winter... Let's start a conversation about changes and regimen modifications you're planning to do in 2021 - we're not looking for specifics, but more of a discussion of general directional changes that you want to make, beginning this year....

Re: Help: I Can't Get Soil Probe Into Ground!
I'm reasonably sold on the fact that you're overthinking this, Chris - and that's leading to overcomplicating the effort... What's the sterilized container and latex gloves all about? We're dealing in dirt. Much of the fun about lawn and garden work is getting your hands into the dirt. While I have ...

Happy New Year to all !!! I don't expect that they'll be a be much bemoaning that 2020 is over - things won't change instantly, but 2021 starts off as a year of hope, with a pretty low bar set for what it will take to be "better" than 2020. Best wishes that all the ATY members and their families hav...

Oh BP, there is nothing that we can say to make those losses hurt any less. Please accept our wishes that God grants you a way to get through this period and that you remember the good memories and not the sadness of your losses as time passes. Reading something like this hits like a punch...

Winter Solstice: The Days Start Getting Longer
The Winter Solstice happened just after 5am ET this morning, and that means that the days no longer get shorter - the turn to each day being a bit longer has happened. Between COVID and the very short days, we all feel cooped up - we need every little hint that things get better in any little way we...

Re: Question re rock salt and grass
Same story here - I start getting "warnings" that I need to schedule an oil change 500 miles before it is due - the warning light has been on for two months, and I still have 443 miles left to go.
BTW, we got about a foot of snow here.

Re: Question re rock salt and grass
Calcium Chloride or Magnesium Chloride are less harmful than Rock Salt (Sodium Chloride) -- but they're more expensive. In late Winter, I generally post a reminder that Gypsum can be applied to try to displace Sodium in late Winter to minimize damage. It's a YMMV treatment - it can help in light/mod...
