June Gloom

June gloom is in full effect. The low clouds and fog have really helped us conserve water this year. To date, our water use has been reduced by over 9 million gallons compared to last year. While this weather pattern is really beneficial to saving water, it does create a headache when it comes to disease pressure. Long periods of moisture make for the perfect breeding ground for disease. We are currently seeing disease on many of our tees and greens. Curative fungicide applications have been made this week and it appears that we have the pathogen in check.
