We seeded the nursery green next to #1 green today. I wanted to get that one done to make sure we have everything calibrated correctly for the golf course greens and develop the sequence that will work the best on these greens. It will be interesting to see how fast this green starts to germinate and grow. We put a pre-plant package of nutrients and a fungicide down to give the seed the best opportunity to germinate and mature rapidly - this was on top of the fertilizer package that we had blended into the mix that the greens are built with.
Now the main thing is to keep water on the new seed. We run the greens heads for 10 min every hour in cycles to insure that there is no puddling or run off - the goal is to keep the seed wet.
