Bermuda grass eradication update

     These are the holes we are spraying to kill bermuda grass this season. Fairways, 7, 8, 18,  Tees 1- 4,  Green surrounds and collars 3, 7, 8.  We might expand this to other areas we will let you know if any extra areas are treated.   Remember this will kill only the bermuda grass our zoysia and fescue will not be killed.  The zoysia, bentgrass and fescue will turn slightly yellow but will be ok.  We need 3 treatments this year and 3 more treatments next year.  At the moment you can see a little injury to the Bermuda grass on 7, 8, and 18 fairways.  So far only # 1 tees have been sprayed. The remaining tees will be sprayed this week.  We will be spraying Green surrounds and collars in late August early September.

 

Notice the brown is bermuda.  Foreground has not been sprayed.  You can see some discoloring of the zoysia.  Zoysia will grow out of the herbicide damage.
