Seed is Up and Growing

 Newly Germinated Seed After Five Days

Driving Range Tee Slit Seeded Two Directions

You may notice some unusual patterns of grass growth in our primary roughs.  This is the successful result of our slit seeding process about two weeks ago.  We were able to slit seed about 3000lbs of Kentucky Bluegrass and Turf Type Tall Fescue seed in weak and thin areas in the rough.  We also had success on the driving range tee with Kentucky Bluegrass, Perennial Ryegrass mix.
