Frequently Asked Questions
Sensor data is not necessary. Using your field observations will work well. However, sensor data can be used if desired.
This means that your organic matter levels are fairly low and/or forecasted temperatures are fairly cool so soil moisture has a less effect.
This occurs when organic matter levels are high and/or forecasted temperatures are warm.
Using the Soil Moisture buttons will help bring growth under control faster than the original PN7 model was able to accomplish in these scenarios.
The Very Low Soil Moisture button may only seldom be used where soil moisture is tightly managed through an excellent irrigation system and handwatering team.
However, the Low or Very Low Soil Moisture button may commonly be used during dry weather where irrigation control is very precise.
On some intensively managed facilities this may true for Tees and Fairways as well.
Yes, you can certainly impart your sense of the conditions that your course will experience during the coming spray window.
For example, if your fairways are not wet today but you see a low pressure system expected to result in wet soil during a good portion of your spray window, you can use the High or Very High Soil Moisture button.
