Understanding Your Lawn Begins with a Soil Analysis

When customers notice their lawns aren’t greening up, especially after fertilization, they often wonder why this is happening and how to fix it. A lack of green up is usually a sign that the lawn is not responding because the fertilizers are bound in the soil and unavailable for the plant to use. However, it’s important to confirm the diagnosis just like a doctor would before prescribing a treatment. That’s why a soil analysis is a good place to start so we know what’s happening with your lawn and how to treat it.

Battling Armyworms in Southern Lawns

Armyworms nest in the thatch of turfgrass lawns. If you catch them early enough, they’re a minor disturbance. But once they take hold–particularly in states across the southern rim of the nation–their numbers can explode. These sneaky pests hide beneath the surface of your lawn by day, emerging only at night to gnaw on blades of grass. If your grass looks brown or blighted, you should test to see if armyworms have set up summer quarters in your lawn.

How to Deal with Spring Dead Spot in Bermudagrass

One of the most noticeable and destructive diseases of bermudagrass is known as Spring Dead Spot (SDS). The disease was first described in a publication in Oklahoma in 1960. It is thought to have been present in Oklahoma since 1936. Since that time, Spring Dead Spot has been observed in most states where bermudagrass is grown. The prevalence and severity of the disease has been increasing for several years and it may be the most destructive disease of bermudagrass in some states. In Texas, Spring Dead Spot has been observed in all areas except extreme South Texas. The disease has been particularly severe in North Texas and the Texas Panhandle.

Late Season Annual Bluegrass Control

Annual bluegrass seed germinates throughout the late-summer and early-fall once soil temperatures drop below 70° F. Seedlings grow and mature in fall, overwinter in a vegetative state, and produce seed in spring. The second germination can occur in late-winter as soil temperatures rise and the days become longer. Annual bluegrass is a prolific seed producer and individual plants may produce hundreds of viable seeds, even when closely mowed. Annual bluegrass flowers over several months in spring and produces a seed that may remain dormant in the soil for years before germinating. Annual bluegrass often dies from summer stresses but may survive in protected sites that receive irrigation. Controlling annual bluegrass in mid-to late-spring in residential lawns can be difficult.
