Eggs - putting green

Remember 2 weeks ago I blogged about the vandalism to the putting green and the eggs that had been thrown on the green, Vandalism.  At the time I wasn't sure what effect that would have a on green.  We cleaned up the shells, watered in the eggs,and mowed and rolled the green like usual.  Now 14 days later we see the eggs provided a fertility benefit.


Green spots where we watered in the eggs


The morning after the eggs where tossed on the green, same location ow with green spots

I guess it makes sense, if fertilizer is chains of proteins and eggs are made up a high percentage of protein.  Maybe in the future, golf course maintenance will be mixing up several 100 eggs in a sprayer and spraying our greens.
