August 7, 2024 Rams Hill Golf Club is in full-growth mode and doing exceptionally well. To support the development of the new TifTuf bermudagrass fairways and enrich the soil with essential nutrients, the maintenance team has begun top dressing the golf course. What is Top Dressing? This process includes adding a layer of nutrient rich sand to the newly planted turf which will then settle into the soil. The benefits of top dressing include a smoother playing surface, improved drainage, thatch control, and to promote lateral growth. Additionally, each putting green planted last summer with Mini Verde bermudagrass has undergone aerification and top dressing. This operation is essential to healthy greens to allow air into the soil and roots. Each putting green gets compacted from foot traffic and it is important to allow the roots to breathe. This [...]
