π A big thank you to our BGL team for their hard work at Bunbury Golf Course!
Our crew recently completed recycle top dressing across all couch fairways, tackling years of accumulated organic matter and thatch while bringing existing soil to the surface and redistributing it through the turf canopy. ππ±
The benefits of this work include:
β
Thatch management β breaks up and dilutes accumulated organic matter, helping reduce sponginess.
β
Compaction relief β opens up tight soil, improving movement of air and water through the root zone.
β
Tree root pruning β cuts encroaching tree roots within the working depth, helping reduce competition with the fairway turf for water and nutrients.
β
Improved water infiltration β helps rainfall and irrigation pe*****te the soil.
β
Better soil aeration β allows oxygen into the root zone and supports microbial activity involved in breaking down organic matter.
β
Healthier turf roots β improves growing conditions beneath the surface, supporting stronger turf and recovery from wear.
β
Firmer, more consistent fairways β helps improve playing conditions as the turf recovers and the redistributed soil settles into the canopy.
β
Reuses existing soil β reduces reliance on imported top dressing material and associated transport.
To our team: thank you for your commitment, care and pride in your work. Working away from home takes dedication, and we appreciate the effort you put into delivering these projects. π
Thank you also to Bunbury Golf Course for welcoming our crew and trusting BGL Solutions with your fairways.
