Greens Update

The greens have rebounded fairly well from the recent aerification. Considering the size of the tines and the amount of sand we put down, I am pleased with where we stand at this point in time. With an aggressive spring aerification I think we should be able to ease off a bit when aerifying this fall. Unfortunately, as the greens began to heal, we started to notice disease (Rapid Blight) on many of the perimeters. Saticoy has long battled Rapid Blight, as it is often initiated when soil salts are high; something we fight throughout the year. Just this week a new fungicide has been registered in California which finally gives us an effective tool to control this disease. The product is on order and will go down as soon as we get it.
