The last two weeks has seen some significant maintenance tasks completed, with my team making the most of the recent lockdown.<\/p>\n
We have been able to clear a large volume of unwanted undergrowth on the 17th<\/sup>, 20th<\/sup> & 23rd<\/sup> holes, dramatically improving the visibility of Kedron Brook, one of our courses most prominent features.\u00a0 There has been some tree maintenance as part of an ongoing program which will continue over the coming months.<\/p>\n The period without any golfers also provided the perfect opportunity to spray some pre-emergent herbicide, along with some more specific herbicides on the tees and fairways.\u00a0 There are some areas of undesirable grasses and broadleaf weeds that will be noticeably starting to brown off.\u00a0 The tees have been fertilised to promote growth as the warmer months approach.<\/p>\n There has been a large amount of returfing undertaken over the past two weeks. Areas on the 10th<\/sup> and 13th<\/sup> fairways, along with the approach and bunker surrounds on the 22nd<\/sup> hole.\u00a0<\/p>\n Earlier this week the greens were de-compacted and aerated by an external contractor, a process that will be repeated next month.<\/p>\n Happy Golfing,<\/p>\n Keith Johnson<\/p>\n Course Superintendent<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The last two weeks has seen some significant maintenance tasks completed, with my team making the […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[64],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-9531","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-course-updates"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
