Although we've had four days of extremely nice weather, the soil temperatures have only increased slightly. As a result, the plants are starting to wake up. Over the last two days, I have seen a gradual greening of the turf.
This week we made two foliar applications to supply the plants the nutrients, amino acids, proteins and carbohydrates they are not yet fully producing on their own. The turf is still extremely fragile and will need some tender loving care as the plants start to recover.
This has been a good week, however it is only step one of the recovery process. I have been able to identify which greens are going to need more attention than others. As we move into next week, I will be developing a recovery plan for each green as they have varying degrees of injury.
