Rains Are Finally Over

 

We were fortunate the past 2 weeks to dodge many of the storms that came through NJ.  Friday we were able to get the Arcola Cup in without delay and Saturday we saw a quick afternoon burst soak the course.  Yesterday looks to be the last of the rains for at least a few days as the course got hit pretty good in the evening.  With high humidity remaining this week and temps in the 90s, we decided to vent the greens today.  The greens have a bit of algae forming in spots and we were able to spray the greens Friday evening to help alleviate it and venting them will help them dry down a bit over the next few days.  While I complained about no rain for most of the spring and how our irrigation inefficiencies were highlighted, I would take that over constant rains and humidity with no control over managing moisture in the soil.
