Chemical Applications

We had two chemical applications scheduled for this week.  Our pre-emerge herbicide application (specticle) was scheduled for Monday.  Due to the wet conditions, we will need to reschedule this application.  The applicator has fallen behind due to the weather conditions and he will contact me once he is available.

The second application is schedule for this coming Sunday.  This is a Chipco Choice application to control ant and molecrickets.  We will evaluate the conditions throughout the week and make a decision on this application on Saturday morning.  This will be our second year to apply this herbicide.  We saw great success with the application in 2013.  This application will give us a 1 year control of molecricket and ants.  We will be treating all of our fairways with this product.

We also want to control molecrickets and ant on our greens and teeing surfaces.  We will use an alternative product called Provant.  This product will be applied three times throughout the year to give us complete control of molecricket and ant in these areas.
