Yeah. Hello, it's Mark Cashmere here, your golf course Superintendent. This is Tuesday, November. We're punching the greens today, just kind of a needle tone or a pencil Tyne and top dressing. We've been doing this the last few falls and springs. We're trying to get more sand into the greens. The reason for that is the accumulation of organic matter that just happens naturally through the growth of the turf. The roots go down in the spring and then they decline in the in the summer, go down in the fall and then decline in the winter and that growing and decaying. The Roots adds organic matter to agree. The organic matter, if it gets to be too much hold moisture to the green and makes them softer. So to keep the organic matter where we want it, we're trying to incorporate more of these into the into the program. What that means for the golfers is firmer conditions, faster greens, more consistently. So the inconvenience is, you know, I think are really worth it to the golfers in the air. So today, just small holes, little pencil time, little sand on that. We prove it in, roll it in pretty good. You can see the holes, but they really don't affect play too much. But. Trying to keep everything rolling nice and firm. Thanks.
