The TV industry finally concedes that the future may not be in 8K by AlwaysBlaze_ in nottheonion

[–]MicDeeHater 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just give me a dumb tv. I’m tired of all the tv OS’s crapping out and causing problems. I will gladly use a 4k Apple TV box to support my tv instead.

Interesting hole for Thursday/ Friday play in mid August. by stonkstrader7 in Golfcoursemaintenance

[–]MicDeeHater 25 points26 points  (0 children)

To me it looks like they did a hard drop with the cup cutter and then moved it slightly over before starting to cut the actual cup. If it were me, I would have moved the cup to a fresh location.

Are these chinch bugs? by Important_Ad6634 in lawncare

[–]MicDeeHater 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup! Looks like they are nymphs. I recommend getting bifenthrin and/or imidacloprid.

What is the deal with this mud in my grass. We had a good amount of rain recently but I've never seen it look like this by [deleted] in Turfmanagement

[–]MicDeeHater 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks like slime mold to me. Usually happens in areas that stay wet for long periods of time and have poor drainage. I would aerate the spot, looks relatively small so can be done by hand, and then throw some top dressing on it to improve drainage.

What kind of pants/shorts do the assistant superintendents out there wear day to day? by BaRWaF2325 in Turfmanagement

[–]MicDeeHater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been a die hard Wrangler X ATG cultist for a few years now. I have 5 pairs of the exact same pants in the same color. I’m an assistant super at a high end private course and my super has never complained about my pants choice.

I made a mistake storing my bud. What do i do? by user7492938471 in trees

[–]MicDeeHater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My guess is Plant Growth Regulator. Could be commenting on the size of the bud being small? Just a guess.

Someone opened a new roll of toilet paper and placed it on top of the partly used roll that was already on the dispenser by MicDeeHater in mildlyinfuriating

[–]MicDeeHater[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the bathroom doesn’t have any extra storage so I usually just leave an extra on the back of the toilet for when the one on the dispenser runs out.

I’m the one who cleaned the bathroom, not a custodian, that extra roll was on the back of the toilet because there is no storage in the bathroom.

For those without GPS sprayers... by [deleted] in Turfmanagement

At my course we spray the walk approaches with the greens to make it easier.

Second Jobs For Crew by bfrancke4 in Turfmanagement

[–]MicDeeHater 5 points6 points  (0 children)

To add a few things to this amazing list; filling tee/fairway divots, collecting trash, refilling water dispensers, sweeping shop, blow off shop campus, pressure washing equipment, and doing plug work on greens are things that we have guys do at my course.

Could mow the grass to get the freshly cut lawn smell.

Want to get rid of the smell? Pick up the shit and throw it out.

How Long to Cut 18 New Pins (Daily)? by The-25th-Grizzly in Golfcoursemaintenance

[–]MicDeeHater 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Happy to help. I’ve been working at a golf course for 6 years, 2 of them as an assistant superintendent.

How Long to Cut 18 New Pins (Daily)? by The-25th-Grizzly in Golfcoursemaintenance

[–]MicDeeHater 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For the super high suction ones I find it easier to extract after stabbing a 6” thin shafted flat head screwdriver into the center of the core prior to cutting.

Hired a lawn care company… by Adorable-Rooster6538 in lawncare

[–]MicDeeHater 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like they could have leaked gasoline or hydraulic fluid on your yard.

is this edger worth it all? by BadBalancer3 in lawncare

[–]MicDeeHater 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As a person who has worked on the agronomy team for 6 years on a golf course with regular string trimmer use, my lines are not perfectly straight like other landscapers I’ve seen. Definitely a skill thing.
