We have been extremely lucky with weather and we have had a great start. There is a considerable amount of thatch in some squares this year, but our Imant Scarifier has been doing a terrific job of cleaning out the wickets.

All our loams, kaloam, surrey loams, mendip and others are all a really good quality this season, which helps to achieve an accurate spread.

Our new 1210 Rink Spreader is working really well and has sped up the operation.

This season our PDS seed mix is made up of four high-ranking cultivars 20% Dickens 25% Dylan 25% Ligala 30% Conrad. This mix is Gromax treated. We have a compound fertiliser 4.6.8+2 FE% Seaweed which is a low nitrogen mix. You can purchase this from our online shop or ring the office on 01386 462425, where Amy will be happy to help you with any requirements.

We will start our winter programme when the squares are established. This will include treatments for worm casts, disease control, leather jacket control, fertiliser applications and aeration.
