Growing Grass


Sometimes Mother Nature can only do so much to help. Pictured here is Justin looking for seedlings and growth on the 15th green. You may have noticed some of these breathable covers on a few greens. They can increase the soil temperature by 10 to 15 degrees. Bentgrass seed has been on this green for 14 days now and we are beginning to see some great results.
The wind has not helped lately with growing grass, but these covers can allow the seed to stay into place. They also allow water, sunlight and oxygen to move through the cover to encourage growth.
