The total rain for the last storm was 1.1 inches. We can handle about .75 inches before we have problems. There was also heavy winds the created a mess of branches. While I sprayed the tees, Jose Duran spent the morning picking up as many branches as possible.
I needed to spray the tees today for the most common disease in Chicago. Dollar Spot is liking the humid wet conditions. I usually wait to spray tees until it becomes noticeable. Greens are sprayed on a preventable schedule. I would spray fairways, but the cost would more than than triple our chemical budget.
I mowed an area on the project by the pump house. It is really starting to take shape. It been very hard to accomplish anything with the wet weather. Doug is making a holding pond and road currently. This pond will hold water as the ditch line goes down. This will aid in preventing flooding. The road will give us access to #12 making transport times shorter and less traffic along #10 and the driving range.
