On Wed. we started installing 10 pallets of sod on #'s1,2,3,9 and 18. Be careful of the loose footing if it is necessary to enter these areas. Below are several pictures of our progress.
Over the last couple of weeks plant material has added to areas around the cluhouse. In front azaleas and compacta hollies have been added to voids where plants have died. The area below the cart storage had become thin and unsightly. All of the plant material was removed then replaced with approx.75 plants consisting of knockout roses,butterfly bush and indian hawthorne.Below are some pictures of this area.
This past week greens were vented using a 1/4" solid tines on a 1.60"x 2" at approx. 3.5" deep.Following the aerifier the greens were rolled smooth so that putting is not affected. This process is very important to the health of our greens and will be performed bi-weekly during the growing season. Listed below are the many benefits of venting.
Allows water and nutrients to enter the profile much easier
Allows for fresh oxygen to enter for a healthier and expansive root system
Allows harmful gases that build up in the greens profile to escape
