As part of weekly course check we use the POGO system to check all our greens for target % soil moisture levels – around 18% is our aim, and we can maybe go a bit lower depending on the how the grass responds. This will all inform the irrigation cycles. As a result of this, in the wetter times of year we can easily stop irrigation for some days. We also adopt a deeper infrequent cycle at certain times of year to encourage deeper root growth – again to ensure the grass is more resilient and improves its response to days when we turn irrigation off.
