Greens

The greens are looking pretty good. There is still very little new root growth. They are still a little slow because I'm really trying to get them all grown in and full for the winter. The faster I can get these edges completely filled in, the sooner they start maturing making it easier to keep them consistently faster than what the currently are.

The increased amounts of fertilizer makes them grow a little faster than normal. I have them under growth regulation, but I haven't started using the stronger regulators because I don't want them on any of the edge areas that we are trying to grow in.

We mowed and rolled this morning but can only mow tomorrow because we have to mow out all the short grass. This doesn't leave us enough guys to roll. We are scheduled to double cut on Saturday and mow once on Sunday. They should keep decent speed through the weekend.

A light topdressing is needed to help them firm up and keep speeds up. We will be doing this on Monday.
