The top picture shows the most recent photo of our 11th green and the bottom picture shows the green about 8 days ago. We know this green has a hard time getting going each spring so we did several things the past 10 days to help it along. First, eliminate all rolling. Second increase nutrients to help increase thatch to allow the green to withstand foot traffic and wear and tear. Third, lightly syringe throughout the day to allow areas not to wilt out, especially during the hot dry spell we just encountered. Today was the first double cut for normal play in over a month. We will continue to monitor plant health and will not roll any longer. Double cutting will continue daily as long as plant health remains positive.
