We are seeding tees this week. We waited for the cold weather to set in to seed our tees. We were so late in the fall seeding window that we chose to dormant seed. The goal is to not have the seed germinate now, rather we want the seed to germinate this spring when the soil temperatures and conditions are right for germination. If the seed germinates now it will have to deal with the difficult winter winds and freezing temperatures and will not likely survive. The blanket you see is a seed protection blanket. It keeps the seed protected from winds blowing it away. It will warm the soil quickly in the spring and give the seed a good jump start when the time is right for growth. We will be seeding all of the thin spots on tees and we will completely renovate the championship tees on 1, 15, 16, 13, and 17.
