Not sure what's going on, but my lawn this season has developed brown patches as the summer wears on (and on.) There were 2 in the Spring, but they seem to be taken over by the healthy sections. Now there are 3 patches where the grass is seemingly dead. Although there was a small poa issue, I don't think there was any in these affected areas. There has been so much rain, there was really no need to supplement it with additional watering, and I also used Hydretain twice, which makes me think... Several Brown Patches In Lawn

Ready to seed and apply final app of Pylex. My questions is, do I have to reseed the same day as the final Pylex/mso app? Or can I seed a day or 2 later? I will be eliminating Triclopyr the final app. From the label: “For reseeding purposes, the last Turfion application with Pylex may be eliminated to allow for reseeding the day of the last application”.

Hello All. I am currently fighting the Bermuda In TTTF War and I am wondering what other current forum members are fighting this war. Most of my arsenal comes from the "Bermuda Control Options In TTTF" thread Bermuda control options in TTTF | Lawn Care Forum (thelawnforum.com) which was started in 2020 but is not currently active. I officially started the war last summer (2023) by jumping in... Bermuda in Fescue War - Who's Currently Fighting?

OK, I'm prepping the yard for a fall overseed in about 2 weeks. I plan to aerate, dethatch, use starter fertilizer, overseed RTF, and apply Tenacity...BUT IN WHAT ORDER? And I have not aerated/dethatched in several years. Clay soil. So, over the summer I have been scouting and chasing down remnants of yellow nutsedge with Sedge Ender, and Bermuda with Pylex/Tricoply/CoC. This is my third year chasing these two pesky weeds, and I must say I think I am close to total annihilation. Sedge... What Order Should I Do These Things In?

I'm in KY and its still hot and dry. Usually around the middle of September the humidity subsides and temp will drop a little to the mid to upper 80's but usually still little rain. I have been irrigating all summer with above ground system and will continue until we get consistant rain. When should I start the fall blitz? Thanks

Tidewater/Hampton Roads Virginia Front & Sides: Some direct sun with filtered sun throughout the day, Mixed turfed. Looks like TTTF and fine fescue. Also has some wide-blade grass that is unaffected by selective herbicide. Possibly Kentucky 31 fescue. Left side yard next to the house is moderate shade and doesn't grow grass well. Back: ~4 hrs full sun, then filtered sun. Removed Tr 7 trees March 2018 and seeded with TTTF. Took well and looked good but did not last... Captquin's Journal - Coastal Virginia

After discovered last spring I had a nice big area loaded with triv grass. After pulling out all of it I sprayed gly in the whole section going out a extra two feet. Kept watering and spraying gly on anything that sprouted. Mid July killed off the whole section and put down 4 year old free Scotts North East mix thinking I'll get some germination just to hold the soil and have something green. This spring a lite dose of fertilizer and pre M looked decent at best. Sprayed gly and killed off... Nick's 2 year triv battle KBG L.I. NY renovation
