Today is the beginning of our Fall aerification. This week we will be working on the greens, moving on to tees and approaches next week. The greens haven't been aggressively aerified in several years, which may be the cause of the excessive puffiness and scalping we have been fighting over the last few months. We are using 5/8" side-eject tines at a depth of 2.5 inches, followed by a heavy topdressing. We will then make an application of potassium, calcium, and lastly bentgrass seed. Expect at least two weeks for the greens to recover.

The video explaining aerification is for those of you with an interest in agronomy......Enjoy!
