DRYJECT

August 4th-8th concluded the final closure for cultural practices before Season.  Greens were Dryject on a 3"x3" spacing in two directions.  Sand was injected at a rate of 1025 lbs/1000 sq ft which totaled 67 tons of material into the greens.

DryJect’s high-pressure, water-based injection system blasts aeration holes through the root zone to fracture the soil while simultaneously filling the holes with sand. This relieves compaction, increases water filtration, allows oxygen to reach the root zone, and amends the soil all at the same time.

This is the column of sand injected into the soil profile.

The sample on the right compares Traditional Core Aeration and DryJect.  The 2" sand Column is from Traditional Core Aeration and the 5" Column is from the DryJect machines.
