Turf School Day Twenty-Seven

Today has been a great day. We woke up and it was warm outside, then the sun came up and it has been sunny and warm.

We started our last half of school today. Our first class after our break was a budgeting class. We talked about how to deal with problems. How it is important to gather as much information as possible about the problem, then make a list of possible solutions and their costs. Once information is gathered and solutions are thought out, the problem should be brought before the boss/owner of the golf course. The information about the problem is explained followed by possible solutions.

We then had our final examination in our case studies class. I finished my first class with a 100% on the final.

We ended our day talking about stress physiology. We had a lecture on irrigation timing and how much water is needed for a golf course in an entire year. We talked about how to calculate the amount of water needed and how often water needs to be applied.
