Irrigation update

It sure has been one of those springs.  The wind, dry and the deep frost level have been a challenge getting the golf course up and fully functional.  The rain this week was a huge help!!

WE are gaining ground each day on the irrigation.  There is still 6 heads not working that are froze!!  Hard to believe still dealing with frost in May.  This week we fixed one main line leak and one lateral line leak.  The system seems to be holding pressure really well right now.  I am hoping by the weekend we will have all the heads working.

Today we will be fertilizing tees, aprons, collars and fairways.  I am hoping with the recent rain and a little push of nitrogen we will help green some of the thin areas up.  If needed we will be going out next week and start over seeding any bad a areas that are not greening up.

If you have any questions or comments please feel free to contact me.
