The weather is finally cooperating, we have seen some nice recovery in the fairways the last few days. Cool temperatures at night and adequate rainfall has helped the new seed germinate. The existing bentgrass is also benefiting from the favorable weather as it continues to aggressively creep into the thinner areas.
We continue to be proactive in these areas. Various combinations of slicing, verticutting and aerifying have proved to be successful in promoting bentgrass growth. The fairways should be dry enough by the end of the week to verticut which will help initiate some additional recovery.
