Windy Conditions Requested

My Mom always told me to be careful for what you ask for ... I asked for a breeze and got a windstorm.  With the winds we were only able to seed a couple of hole's fairways but the good news is we got the ones that would be in the way of the road slurry tomorrow.  Instead of seeding we were able to fertilize the fairways and tees without worrying if to irrigation needed to water the fertilizer in was going to lead to more pythium.

Between the roads being done and us having to prep the golf course there may be some things that slip through the cracks before opening.  Our number one concern is the greens the were infected with pythium and their repair ... progress has been slow but going forward.  I even had to reach into my bag of tricks from growing bentgrass in the transition zone of Memphis TN and added to that to help expedite the damaged greens repairs.
