Classic case of overwatering DIY how to fix repair lawn fungus Melting Out, leaf spot, red thread.

On this week of what's wrong with my lawn we examine a case where the lawn stopped growing. The lawn was green but had a hazy brown copper top. Join me this week as we go through the lawn on What's wrong with my lawn.

Most lawns are dealing with multiple issues. You'll find in this episode we are dealing with some areas of lack of water. Most of the areas have severe excess watering that has caused the melting out, leaf spot, and red thread fungus.

By performing a thatch test we found that there was not an excess of thatch or dead grass traveling throughout the lawn. We verified the watering problems using a soil probe.

The repair is as follows:
1. temporarily dehydrate the lawn by not watering for 5 to 10 days. We do not want the lawn to brown out. We want the lawn to stress out a bit to manage the fungus.

2. adjust the sprinklers and make sure they are spraying evenly.

3. re-introduce the water. You may need to water 2 inches per day until you get the water back into the soil 6" to 8" deep.

4. Apply a combination of an 16% higher ammonium nitrogen (summer use) or revive granular at 4% (early spring / late fall use) with a bio stimulant or soil conditioner

5. Let the lawn grow out to 4" to 6" tall

6. mow the top 2" to 3" off. This removes the fungal layer to prevent it from spreading.
