Fertilizing

Now with the large irrigation project is down to a final punch list it is time to get on the course and start spreading spring fertilizer.  This is our time to increase the density of the turf that has seen a lot of winter traffic while it was dormant. Develop a healthy plant with a deep root system that will hold up to our 20+ days of 100 degrees, and improve the quality of our paying surface.  Everything we do in the next 2 1/2 months to improve the health of our turf sets up for  June, July, and August.

Fertilizing tees

We have fertilized tees, approaches, fairway spots, and rough spots this week, and greens will be fertilized next week in preparation of greens aerification the following week, April 16 and 17.
