Keeping It Green

To Get a Green To Look Like This
You Need to Spend Time Doing This

Just to let you know that a small group of volunteer workers are keeping our Green in playable condition while the club is in lock-down. It is being cut three times a week, aerated once a week and sprayed & irrigated regularly to feed, weed and treat it against disease and fungal attack. The pictures above were taken over last weekend. Thank you Ladies and Gentlemen.

Mike would appreciate any additional help he can get, particularly with the spraying and irrigation. It’s not too physical but does require a methodical approach and a bit of patience. Working on the Green is allowed under the Government rules so, if you fancy a break from your own four walls, why not give him a call on 020 8398 4549.

Getting to the Root of the Problem…

Work started this morning to install an effective root barrier to prevent further damage to the Green from the neighbouring Leylandii hedge. The work will take a couple of days and involves digging a narrow trench, cutting existing roots and installing the barrier to prevent further ingress. Some of the larger roots can be seen laid on the tarpaulin. Afterwards new turf will be laid in readiness for play next season.
