WINTER WEED CONTROL

With the weather being like it has been the last month, we still have some winter weed control to take care of around greens and areas missed earlier by the fall application. Control seems to be good around tees, fairways and primary rough, but have noticed some spots around greens. If you combine weather, frost in the mornings and wind in the afternoon, the spray time is limited to only a few hours each day. We are using roundup in this application to remove any growing unwanted grasses and weeds from the dormant Bermuda turf. When we treat the Bermuda surrounding the greens, we must keep the side we are working on closed for the day. The ideal time is Mondays that we are closed, but the weather has to co-operate for that to happen. I told Daniel , we may have go with plan b later this month or early next month if the weather keeps us from doing this task on Mondays. The pro shop will be informed of our plan and we will send an e-mail out in advance of any possible course closing due to roundup applications, also it will be posted here as well.
