We continue to be happy with this approach and have expanded our programme so that we are treating the green with a range of bio stimulants throughout the calendar year. Research suggesting that if the green is in a healthy condition disease in any form will not get hold to any detrimental degree and whilst we still have an outbreak of the brown patch fungus Fusarium we no longer carry any form of control to eradicate the disease.\u00a0 We continue to monitor Fusarium outbreaks closely to see what\u00a0 if any \u00a0mitigation such as over seeding in the spring may or may not be required. So far the sward has recovered quickly in the spring at no cost to the club.<\/p>\n<p><span>On alternate weeks the green is either verticut or spiked with a sorrel roller. Deep spiking down to five inches is carried out around four times a year.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Although we currently have enough volunteers to satisfy the work requirement members are still encouraged to put themselves forward for this essential program of works.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The green is 29.5 metres wide by 44 metres long\u00a0 Maintenance In 2018 the greens management team developed a radical new approach to the way the green is managed moving [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":31,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_mc_calendar":[],"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-61","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
