Busy week at Hopwood

Another dry week has meant we've managed to get loads done and start catching up with our outstanding jobs.
We've rebuilt the large practice bunker on the front field, it's already been turfed and when the turf has rooted we'll do the final shaping and fill it with fresh sand.
All the stump holes have now been turfed, topdressed and tidied.
3 of the areas with drainage problems have been sorted (2nd, 5th & 15th), once these areas dry out we will soil and turf the trenches.
Our 2nd cycle of aeration is nearing completion on the fairways, semi and walkways. As soon as we finish, we can start scarifying the fairways and approaches ready for the start of the season.
We hope to deep tine the greens again next week as soil conditions are perfect. This will be followed by micro-tining and a light roll. This should provide the soil under the greens with many cracks & channels for drainage and root growth.
Fingers crossed for higher temperatures as well.
