Might’ve spoken too soon with th the recent Autumn storm! This is what happens when a severe Autumn storm passes through on farm! West Coast Turf in Neergabby (Gingin) had this awful realization after being stuck in the shed whilst the hailstorm went through. There must’ve been some terrible wind up there. Just look at the irrigator how it has fallen over and the Dome building! There’s a bit to be fixed up here, which will put them in a precarious situation if not completed before the heat comes back.
Although, knowing Darren Kirkwood, he won’t let sleeping dogs lie. He will be on to sorting this out ASAP. It’s such an annoyance and disappointment though. You can ask any turf producer who has an irrigator/pivot when it’s going to fall over, and it usually at the hottest time of the year!

That’s awful 😞 such a lot of work
Ohh F^%K!
The rain today is excellent for our gardens and lawns. Bit of nitrogen included as a bonus with the thunder. Could make all the difference. Bring it down Huey! Bring it down. We all love a good Autumn rain.

Huge thanks to Nick Clayton who generously hosted the TGAWA meeting at the Mineral Magic offices last Wednesday evening. As a host you can’t be faulted Nick. It was so kind of you to put on fresh food and drinks for us all. Thank you so much!
Thank you too to Dean Mosch, Peter Frewin and Dr Brett Morris from Syngenta Turf & Landscape ANZ, for attending our meeting and presenting on the new nematocide #trefinti. The presentation was excellent and the resulting conversation and Q and A well worth while. Thank you all so much for making this a good meeting. Thanks to all who could attend also.
