Welcome to the Hillcrest Turf Blog. As our blog grows and develops we are creating a "year in review" and the blog with pictures and articles related to different problems and successes during the growing season remind us of the many improvements Hillcrest under goes every season.

Tasks completed this week................























This week we completed some more cart path on #17. Cut down a dying cottonwood on #14 and topdressed the greens. We also started on our grub preventative on tees and green surrounds and fertilized both the tees and approaches. The grub application needs to be watered in and watering the fertilizer in will hastens its effects. So our irrigation plan was to not water anything Thursday night with the idea we would be watering a little heavy on Friday night, and when I say a little heavier I am talking about .14 of an inch or less.


The downside of this plan is the Club Championship players on Saturday morning may experience a little softer conditions first thing in the morning, but Sunday should be better.


A quick disease update: We have some.
