Sowing Seed
Seed is mechanically drilled into the ground
Histosol Soils
Our farms have rich soil that is ideal for growing Kentucky Bluegrass
Groundwork
Soil is then packed and finished after seeding
Aerial View
With a coverage width of 960' our Heinzman travelers irrigate large fields effectively.
Frequent Watering
To achieve a high quality product, we must water frequenty as this promotes growth and density.
High Output
Our softhose travelers water at 1,200 Gallons per minute @ 140 PSI
Irrigation Pipe
To water smaller areas, 4" pipe is laid out with traditonal impact heads.
Fertilization
In-cab GPS guidance is utilized to aid in the even distribution of various fertilizers applied throughout the growing season.
Mowing
Mowing is accomplished with multiple series of reel mowers which forms a "gang" of 9, 11, 13, 15, etc.
Reel Mowers
Reel mowers cut with a scissor like action, compared to the common rotary mower which chops. This method improves the health and appearance of the grass.
Rolling
Ground is rolled to insure that it is perfectly flat before harvesting
