Greens

The greens were a little slower and softer than they
have been lately. I flushed them yesterday. We are still having elevated sodium levels in the greens from the lack of rain this fall.

The sodium acts as a growth regulator this time of year. Flushing the greens to remove a good portion of sodium helps the greens to continue growing and maturing. We were getting less than a half bucket of grass off the greens the last week, after the flush we got about 2 buckets off each green. This is a good example of how the greens feel and look much better after a flush or heavy rain.

The pond on 4 is getting pretty low. I'm trying to avoid putting more bad water in the pond that will hang around for some time. Let's hope for some rain soon to refill that thing.
