Aerification 7-30-13

This past week we performed our big yearly aerification on greens. We did a 5/8" hole on a 2X2.5 spacing. Our process was very similar to what we did in the spring with a few minor adjustments. We Double verticut Greens, Top dressed heavy, aerified with core harvester attachements, cleaned up the plugs by hand, brushed 3 times, rolled, then lightly blew off. The next day we put out all of our amenentments. We also used these 2 closed days to aerify tees and double verticut all of our fairways. 

 Here is #1 being aerified, after the verticutting and top dressing. You can also see the verticut units in the fairway here.

This was 2 days after aerification.
