Hello from your Landscaping Team!
Good day Everyone
What beautiful weather we have shared the last couple weeks. To everyone coming back, welcome home.
General Pruning:
- As we start another pruning cycle this next week – we see we have a number of areas with Christmass holiday spirit outdoors. We will add extra caution to help prevent damage to the lights. We are excited to see how we get the seasonal flush of flowers within the Community. Our team will primarily be working with shaping and using loopers and handprunners where now possible. There are still some areas where we will be reducing plant material further down in the size. This will be reviewed with board members before cuts are made.
- We have completed an application of growth enhancer and regulator in all the sections. This will be a 2 part treatment one now and one as we come into March and April. As with all the much needed cuts complete it will be a completely different management load next year. We will still be working towards bringing all the hedge material where approximate to the 6 foot range as we cycle through the fall / winter months
Weed Control:
- In the beds we gained much control. In the last month we applied a premegerant to assist with the spring flush in controlling the outbreak.
- Now as it pertains to the turf areas we will only be targeting the areas where the Grass has a stronger threshold than the common weeds there now. This is also being reviewed with Management. We have seen the presence of dollarweed- however, working with Miquel in efforts to control it.
Mowing:
- We are currently mowing every other week. We will remain weekly till we move into April.
IPM:
- We have been targeting the dollar weed and the broadleaf weeds. The next property review and treatment for fungus and weeds will be at the end of January.
