Rescue on the surrounds

Yesterday Adam and myself attended a STRI turf research event at the STRI base in Bingley Yorkshire. It centres around 7 different stations discussing trials they are carrying out on turf to improve the way we manage our sports turf. Some very interesting points raised and some information we can take back with us to use at Malton and Norton.

Discussing organic matter reduction.......in the rain

Back at work today and we sprayed 9 surrounds with Rescue to reduce Ryegrass which is an annual problem at the club. We sprayed 1-8 and 15th, these are the worst for the most course type of Ryegrass. We should see it start to die back within a couple of weeks

Applied through a knapsack sprayer ensures it is delivered just to the surround surface, the semi rough is all Rye so we don't want to over lap on to this area. More updates will follow. The rest of the course was cut up ready for the weekend, which looks like the sun is to return.
