Now into June you would expect summer conditions, sunshine warmth and lots of the growth. However this June is more like March. The temperature over the last couple of days has been very cool, windy and we have had 17 mm of rain. The rain was welcome however we would have liked it not all at once. At least it's has washed the insecticide in that was applied last Thursday.
This morning the team went to work to clear lots of debris from greens tees and fairways before they could be cut. Overall the drainage works well with most areas dry by the time we arrived at work. There were a few wet areas however these were isolated and the course opened without problem. Today the irrigation was connected on the new 20th tee which means we can now turf the tee tops and banks. This will be done next week.
Fertiliser will be applied to greens on Thursday.
This week all rough will be cut, it has been three weeks since it was last cut but growth is minimal. If temperatures increase during the latter part of this week and we expect to see denser growth. Maybe not good news for stray golf balls.
