Interesting how this video popped up tonight! Lol. It’s raining now and tomorrow, but I have somebody coming to take care my fungus issue Friday for 80 bucks
Thanks Adam! It has been tons of hard work and I am glad to see the pay off! Still have a ways to go to get it exactly where I want it. Glad you know the struggle is real.
Oh the struggle. It's a daily work ordeal in the lawn. I bought a dethatch rake after that video and man what a difference once all the crap is pulled up.
I have a fescue lawn in my backyard and a perennial ryegrass sun and shade mix in my front yard (both cool weather grass types). Several years ago I had a pythium fungal disease in my backyard and a few brown spots in the front lawn. Both were treated and eventually went away. I mowed my lawn all winter, never noticed anything, until now. The last I saw the diseases were YEARS ago. They're both back after years of being absent. Too make matters worse, the temperatures are hotter due to the consecutive two year drought. Should I let my lawn go dormant for summer? It's spring now, but my area is suffering from a major heatwave. The seasonal transition went from winter, straight to summer conditions. No spring... Should I apply a fungicide in 80 plus degree weather? What are my options?
If you know you have pythium, that can be a tough disease to treat, but we still recommend treating the entire lawn if you have established turfgrass. You can use fungicides if it's hot, just be sure you follow the directions on the product you are using regarding any watering needed. You may need to go ahead and get a new soil test if you haven't had one recently to check your nutrient levels and pH. Make sure you aren't mowing too much off the lawn each time as well. You did not mention where you are located, so of course overall care timing can vary depending on where you are in the country. We have a nice Fescue Care Guide below that you may want to review as well: www.domyown.com/how-to-care-for-fescue-grass-a-768.html And, of course, feel free to reach us by phone at 866-581-7378 or by live chat M-F 9a-5p ET if you have other questions.
When would I be able to apply fungicide? We just did a total lawn Reno and spread our fescue seed 3-4 weeks ago. We are almost at the point of first mow, but will give it another week or two. We are in Georgia. Thanks in advance.
We are actually planning to make a video about this very topic! We will make sure to answer this question in that video for you so stay tuned! Thanks for watching and commenting.
We usually recommend waiting to put down fertilizer on new seed until about 2-3 weeks after you have seeded, so fungicide should be the same. If you know you have had disease problems in the past, then you can put down fungicide as the grass is filling it. Just be sure you follow the product label for the fungicide you are using, and that you do not over-apply and put unnecessary stress on the new turfgrass.
Thanks for watching and the comment Mike! How often you will need to re-apply will depend on the product you choose. Many formulas are contact fungicides, which means they will only protect what it has come in contact with. You must ensure the entire surface of the plant has been treated with the product. Any time the product degrades or the plant outgrows the application, the plant is no longer protected. You will most likely have to reapply the fungicide in 7-14 day intervals over the growing season due to weathering and chemical breakdown. Having said that make sure to read the product label and if you are still unsure, call our customer service staff, 866-581-7378.
The rate for Clearys 3336F is given per area not per gallon as water is just the carrier and is not set since it can vary by person for how much they use. For treating gray leaf spot in lawns is 4-6 fl oz per 1000 sqft. You would mix that in however much water it takes to cover that 1,000 sq ft We have a video that can help as well here ruclips.net/video/oMAZxkiEJFE/видео.html
Thanks for watching and commenting! This spreader is actually discontinued. See if this one will fit your needs... www.domyown.com/chapin-all-season-professional-surespread-spreader-with-edge-control-80-lb-82080-p-9832.html

Man I'm under attack with pythium blight right now. I got some subdue on the way. Since subdue is systemic, will it be curative? I was reading that if I get a systemic or preventative, I'd also need a contact or curative fungicide, is this true? Also what 2 options do I have for pythium on tttfescue to interchange between?
Subdue is a preventative for Pythium Blight and Azoxy 50 wdg is also. You can use in rotation once the disease is controlled. For control, you would need to use Banol fungicide. www.domyown.com/banol-fungicide-p-2269.html www.domyown.com/prime-source-azoxy-50-wdg-fungicide-p-12184.html?sub_id=12185
The product that was used in that video does require to be watered in for most applications. The amount of water needed will be stated on the label of each product. This will not be the same with all products and that is why it is so important to read over the product label before applying. Please let us know if you have any other questions.
I don't understand-why the incessant, unnecessary, and incredibly distracting jump-cuts after each sentence? I couldn't watch for more than 30 seconds. I'll have to learn about applying fungicide somewhere else.
Thank you for sharing. Yes. Preventive is good

Lawn looks legit. Better than it did compared to the first video. Louisiana boy here so I understand the issues.

No spring...
