How to Identify Fungus in Your Lawn

We can experience a number of lawn diseases in the tri-state area (Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware) and before you decide you need fungus treatment, it’s important to know how to recognize fungus in your lawn.

How to find Leaf Spot

Leaf spot, otherwise known as “melting-out diseases” are provoked by a special group of fungi. This group is referred to as Helminthosporium. Every season, our grass species are prone to a leaf spotting or “melting-out” effect. You can start to see this attack when your grass starts to become burnt out or consumed by burned brown spots. During the summer months, leaf spotting can attack nearly every turf species—tall fescue and ryegrass are especially prone to this attack. However, it’s advised to keep a close watch late spring through the summer months for the extreme damage and activity.

How to find Dollar Spot

Many lawn care diseases, once appearing only on golf courses, are now appearing commonly on our lawns. On our home turf, cut at 1 to 3 inches, with light tan or white dead areas reaching 2 to 4 inches in distance are good indicators of having dollar spot. These spots can ultimately produce large areas of dead turf. The most severe cases of dollar spot may occur during the muggy summer months on turf receiving a closely-spaced water source. This may also occur if your turf doesn’t have a proper irrigation source as the humidity can overtake your turf. Dollar spot is most direct when under a nitrogen deficiency or when your grass grows too slow.

How to find Red Thread

This common lawn fungus is prevalent amongst perennial ryegrass and fine fescue. These are the two most susceptible species of turf to this disease. There is a good chance you may notice these unsightly red/pinkish blotches on your turf as you went to get the mail, or as you may walk up to our door when you arrive home from work. Other contributing factors to the cause of red thread are insufficient nitrogen levels, and poor drainage of the turf. The more moisture on your lawn, the higher the probability of red thread occurring on your property is, or any disease for that matter.

When Does Your Lawn Need Fungus Control?

If you’ve identified fungus in your yard then you likely need a fungicide program to treat your lawn. With the combination of high summer temperatures, high humidity levels and inconsistent rainfall, it’s common to have to treat lawn care disease in the summer months. Fescue and Ryegrass are especially exposed to developing Red Thread, Leaf Spot and Dollar Spot during the summer months. Factors that can increase the likelihood of developing this harmful lawn disease, and subsequently needing treatment, are mowing at the wrong height, poor turf drainage and improper watering. Each of these indicate it’s time get your fungus under control.

Green Lawn Fertilizing offers a preventative AND post application Fungicide Program to handle your lawn’s fungicide needs to help aid in lawn fungus control. And if you’re part of our lawn fertilizing program we look to provide you with the most personalized information pertaining to your lawn possible during each visit to your property.  If any of our technicians notice this fungus activity on your lawn, we will be sure to make your aware of its presence, and any actions that need to be taken to resolve this issue, or any others.

I continue to have an excellent experience with GLF (Christian R and the entire staff) after many years of being a customer. The GLF Technician makes all the difference in-season. ‘John R’ did a thorough professional job in today's first... application of 2023. He even took the time to reach out to me to review the work and asked if I needed anything further before he wrapped up. Outstanding.read more

I don't believe in luck, I believe in trust and understanding, I've been with Mrs. Jack Florence for some YEARS and I've made a good amount of money with his simple strategies of trading. Meeting with her has been the best experience that has... happened to me in the past few months and I'm expecting yet another payment from the broker. Scammers are everywhere but to find a reliable trader like Mrs. Jack Florence is not an easy task and my advice for you all is to come over and join her. contact her directly on her

We just had our first application using Green Lawn Fertilizing for weed control and lawn fertilizing. Although I cannot yet speak to the quality of the service, our technician Zac B was very kind, answered any questions I had, and talked me through... the process he was doing today. After application, he gave me paperwork to describe the service and some recommendations on how to help make the most of the service (height to cut lawn, watering, etc).I'll update as the season goes along how our lawn changes, but 5 stars for now for customer service.read more

We love the lawn service Zach Baker has been giving us. He is attentive to every inch of our lawn. He does this without realizing I'm watching him. Our last company didn't pay attention to edges and corners even after I would complain. Zach... makes sure he gets everything covered and the results have been noticeably better. We're also very happy with Green Lawn and would highly recommend their service. They use a combination of many different products as needed and are less expensive than our previous service that wasn't attentive to my concerns. I hope that Zach will remain our lawn guy for many years to come, with Green Lawn Fertilizing.read more
