Greens Update

If you have golfed lately you may have noticed spots on the greens.  The culprit is Leaf spot.  Leaf spot is a disease which we tend to see in Spring and Fall.  It is always there just waiting for the perfect environment.  Periods of wet, cool weather, moist soil and overcast days is when it thrives.  Currently we are all of the above and it has hit the greens in a situation unlike I have ever seen before.  I took a sample to the UGA Plant Pathologist today and his diagnosis confirmed my suspicion.  I have sprayed several different chemistry's to control this and now we need the perfect environment for recovery.  The greens need sunlight and warm temperatures!
