With aerification now behind us, greens are being fertilized with an 18-9-18 fertilizer as well as a polymer coated potassium product (0-0-50). In addition to that, calcitic lime and Pro Mag (magnesium amendment) were applied today. This is the time of year we feed the soil and as we get into the season, everything turns to foliar applications. On a lighter note, while applying a fungicide to the greens last week, the staff used the sprayer which comes with the protocol to wear the proper PPE. A walker on the course got excited when they thought we were treating the grass for COVID 19. After explaining that we were simply applying a fungicide, she calmed down and went on her way. 😃
