November Update

🎙️ TRAFFIC ON THE TURF – NOVEMBER UPDATE “Hey pros, it’s time for Traffic on the Turf — brought to you by Turf’s Up Radio… your industry, your station. We’re rolling into November, and while the leaves are falling, your lawns still need attention. Here’s what should be on your radar: * Cool-season lawns: Keep mowing until growth stops. Drop your height a notch for that final cut to prevent matting under snow. * Fertilization: This is your last chance to feed cool-season turf — hit it with a slow-release nitrogen to strengthen roots before dormancy. * Leaf management: Don’t leave debris. Mulch it fine or remove it to avoid smothering turf. * Weed control: Post-emergent broadleaf treatments still work while soil temps are above 50°F. * Equipment care: Start winterizing blowers, mowers, and sprayers. Drain fuel systems or stabilize them for storage. If you’re managing warm-season turf down south, ease off fertilizing now and prep for aeration and topdressing as temps drop. That’s your Traffic on the Turf for November — powered by Turf’s Up Radio, your industry, your station.”

October week 1 - Traffic On the Turf

Let’s take a quick lap around today’s Traffic on the Turf. When you roll up to a property, remember the basics that keep customers happy and protect your reputation. Watch where you drive and park—avoid pulling trucks or trailers onto the turf. Stay off wet lawns to prevent ruts and compaction. Keep mower blades sharp and set at the right height to avoid scalping. Blow clippings back onto the grass or into collection bags, not into beds, driveways, or the street. Double-check gates so pets don’t slip out. And always scan for irrigation heads, lighting wires, or fresh plantings before you fire up equipment. A few extra seconds of awareness saves time, money, and callbacks. That’s today’s Traffic on the Turf—your guide to staying in the clear on every job site.

August 5 Traffic

TRAFFIC ON THE TURF Hello and welcome to Traffic on the Turf, your weekly update for landscaping pros to keep lawns looking their best. Right now, in early August, it’s critical to focus on late summer lawn care strategies. This means applying a balanced fertilizer with higher potassium to strengthen turfgrass roots for fall. Also, watch for signs of disease caused by heat and humidity—fungicide treatments may be needed on susceptible lawns. Make sure your crews are adjusting mowing heights to avoid scalping stressed grass. The best products to use this time of year include slow-release fertilizers and organic soil conditioners that boost moisture retention. Keep an eye out for supply chain bottlenecks—some specialty fertilizers and fungicides are running low due to high demand this season. Pricing has also been rising, so consider adjusting your service rates accordingly. That’s your Traffic on the Turf update. Stay tuned for more tips next week to keep your clients’ lawns thriving!

7.15.2025 Traffic On the Turf

TRAFFIC ON THE TURF BROUGHT TO YOU BY TOWA TOOLS (Weekly Segment – Turf’s Up Radio) Hey pros — this is your weekly Traffic on the Turf report, brought to you by Towa Tools — built for pros who don’t stop moving. Let’s take a quick spin around what’s happening in the field this week: 🚧 EQUIPMENT BACKLOGS SLOWING SOME CREWS Still waiting on that new mower or battery trimmer? You’re not alone. Several dealers across the Southeast are reporting shipping delays on key parts and machines — especially for ride-ons and commercial-grade battery tools. If you’re expanding or replacing equipment this summer, order early… and keep your backups in rotation. 💼 EMPLOYEE TURNOVER ON THE RISE IN MID-SEASON Contractors from coast to coast are reporting a mid-summer slump in staffing. Burnout, heat stress, and the pull of "easier" jobs are driving up turnover. If you haven’t already, now’s the time to offer a mid-season bonus, a few cold perks — and a reminder of why your team matters. 📍ALL EYES ON ORLANDO The buzz is already building for The Landscape Show, coming this September. Vendors, manufacturers, and educators are locking in spots — and Turf’s Up Radio will be broadcasting live from the floor. Make sure you're there, or tuned in, for the latest tools, plants, and tech heading into fall. This Traffic on the Turf segment is powered by Towa Tools — the choice of pros who want precision, durability, and battery-powered performance that lasts all day. Towa Tools… built to work.
