Graden verticut

This week we are doing a deep verticut of the greens. The machine we use is called a graden. It has a sand box attached to the top of the machine. As the blades remove the thatch, the sand is then dropped down through tubes to fill the void. This machine will remove about 12% of organic material with the blades we are using. Today was a tough day due to no sun and a light rain. The front nine was completed today and the back nine later this week.
