Last Thursday and Friday we sprigged the front 9 fairways on Palmetto...and even had enough sprigs left over to do #18 as a bonus fairway. The process went exactly as planned and we've had great weather so far for establishment. The 20mph winds today have created some challenges for our irrigation heads, but at least its not terribly hot. The fairways are being watered hourly to keep the new sprigs wet until they begin to develop a root system. We'll continue to water hourly for about 7 days.
We are also continuing to prepare the back 9 fairways and all the greens for planting in the coming weeks. Back 9 fairways will be planted on June 11th and 12th, and the greens will be planted the week of June 16th.
