When the dew had burnt off Mark and Scott cut the greens with the JD triple greens mowers. They are set just below 5mm, with the greens recently top dressed we try to ensure the greens surface are dry when we cut and at 5mm it ensures no top dress damages the blades of the mowers. With the greens top dressed every 2-3 weeks they will run faster and smoother each time they are dressed, we do this until they reach a satisfactory level where we can reduce amounts of sand applied on each application and then the height of cut can be reduced slightly to around 3.75mm - 4mm.

Will watered all the trees we planted this winter to ensure they have the best start possible, especially when the weather is currently so dry.
Yesterday all the recently laid turf was thoroughly watered to ensure the turf doesn't dry out and shrink during this hot spell. The renovated bunkers are looking great now they have established and are full of sand.
