About the Book

Greenkeeping Guide: Volume 3 Irrigation and Water Management
Water is the most influential and often the most misunderstood resource in turf management. Greenkeeping Guide: Volume 3 Irrigation and Water Management gives superintendents, assistants, and turf crews a complete, field tested framework for making irrigation decisions with clarity and confidence.

Drawing on 36 years of hands on experience across Western Canada, Wallace Briggs explains irrigation not as a collection of parts, but as a living system shaped by soil, climate, hydraulics, and plant physiology. This volume translates complex concepts into practical tools you can use immediately on any site.
Inside you'll find:

  • Clear explanations of water balance, evapotranspiration, plant-available water, and root zone dynamics
  • Seasonal irrigation strategies for spring growth, summer stress, fall recovery, dormancy, and wet-season management
  • Detailed guidance on system types, zoning principles, hydraulics, and distribution uniformity
  • Step-by-step diagnostic methods for leaks, dry spots, pressure issues, and coverage gaps
  • Soil moisture monitoring techniques, ET integration, catch-can testing, and sensor calibration
  • Site-specific planning for slopes, shade, microclimates, compaction, and water-supply constraints
  • Crew-ready checklists, field procedures, and operational oversight tools
Written for real-world conditions not engineering labs this guide helps you reduce water waste, improve turf resilience, and maintain consistent playability under pressure. Whether you oversee a championship course, a community facility, or a multi-field complex, this volume equips you with the knowledge and systems to manage water with precision and purpose.
The Greenkeeping Guide Series continues its mission to provide practical, professional, and accessible resources for modern turf operations. Volume 3 is your blueprint for mastering irrigation in a changing climate and a demanding industry.
