Matteo Serena is the Senior Manager of Irrigation Research and Services for the USGA. We discussed drip irrigation, growth regulators and soil surfactants, water use, overseeding, and bermudagrass vs. zoysiagrass water use.

We discussed this ATC blog post: https://www.asianturfgrass.com/post/zoysia-and-water-use/

We also discussed these articles:
