Dryject Process #2 Green Video

This is a video of the dryject process on the 2nd green.  Our process on this green and all others is we deep tined the greens first with 1/2" tines to help loosen up the soil and create more channels for the dryject to penetrate.  This dryject machine injects sand and water to a depth of 8-12" depending on green soil types.  We used this machine only on the 2nd green as it is one of our worst draining greens.  Watch what happens when the water hits the heavy clay layer down below, the pressure of the water and the hard layer are forcing water out of our deep tine holes.  This means it is hard for the water to penetrate the layer which is why it drains so poorly, but it is moving laterally and now fracturing the soil and this will create more pore spaces for roots and improve drainage.  At the end of the day, XGD is really needed but the dryject should also be done to help the water move laterally to the drainage lines.
