Weather and flushing

It looks like we may have a break coming our way as far as the temps are concerned. The chance of rain nearly everyday next week isn't what you want to see this time of year but at least the forecasted temps are not that high.

As far as today goes......The rain missed us this evening but that's just as well. I'm going to flush greens tonight with the irrigation system. The greens have been slow to recover, partially due to to weather and partially due to the amount of sodium built up in the top inch of the soil profile. The sodium prevents the plant from recovering from stress, even with proper nutrition present and favorable weather.
