Aerification Update

The rain last week put our approach aerification schedule on hold for the weekend, but at any rate, the golf course needed the rain so we are not complaining!  Today we are finishing up the work on the approaches. 

The plan on the calendar was to complete the agronomic treatments on the fairways this week, but with more rain in the forecast we will shift our focus to get out as much fertilizer as possible before the rains come.  Fertilizing before a rain event in the fall is always a preferable method as mother nature seems to be best at working fertilizer into the soil profile evenly.

Fortunately, the long range forecast predicts that we will have good weather next week for greens aerfication and we should be able to get back on schedule by the end of the month.
