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
