Calabasas Country Club
Weekly Update
This week the crew will be working on:
- Aerating the driving range tee as well as applying seed, sand and fertilizer.
- Light topdressing on the greens.
- Dead tree removal.
- Stream cleaning.
- Tree stump removal
- Repairing broken cart paths
- A small safety fence on #7
- A synthetic acid will be applied to the greens
The synthetic acid is applied to lower the pH, solubilize calcium and other salts. As well as lower soil sodium and bicarbonate levels to improve soil structure, nutrient availability and general plant health. Also the acid will reduce calcium carbonate in the soil and increase flocculation.
- The greens will be flushed after top dressed and acid is applied.

Eric Wenzinger
