Some Good Growth

The weather has been awesome over the past week or so.  We had a little frost on Friday morning, but nothing that hurt anything.  The zoysia grass is really starting to green up and take off which is a great site after the slow start we had last year.  We mowed the tees yesterday for the first time and are hoping to mow the fairways next week if the weather holds like they say it is suppose too.  The greens continue to heal after our aerification on Monday and Tuesday.  I was surprised how well they actually look already as they have a nice green color and are already starting to fill in four days after we aerified them.  We put another topdressing of sand on them on Friday to help fill in the holes that had settled to try make them as smooth as possible as they heal.  We hope to be able to mow them on Monday and start the process of getting the sand off of them as we finally have filled most of the holes.  Our new putting green has really taken off over the past week.  I have attached a photo below showing the good growth that we had. Now we just have to keep our fingers crossed that we don't have a huge rain that washes the green out.  Have a great weekend!
