Mother Nature never ceases to amaze me. While it is spring in Michigan, the disparity in weather conditions we've seen for the last several weeks has been significant.

We also had 9-17 mph winds and humidity that dropped to 15%. Unfortunately, that combination resulted in some significant localized dry spots. Despite our hand-watering efforts, we were unable to keep up with the evapotranspiration rates, and some of the Poa annua turf suffered moisture stress.

The plants will recover, but they will not look aesthetically appealing for the next few days. As I have stated in previous posts, Poa annua is not very heat tolerant.
